Public bug reported:
I have a Lenovo 3000 N200 notebook: 3gig mem, Intel dual core, DVD multi
recorder.
I installed Ubuntu 8.04 AMD64 via LiveCD (both at boot-up and later via
live desktop shortcut) and Ubuntu fails to recognise any CD/DVD device.
The notebook's DVD, as reported in BIOS, is an IDE MATSHITA RAM UJ-850.
I tried all solutions mentioned in related Matshita Bug#129708 but they
did not work for me. Note that this bug is NOT the same as Bug#129708 --
I do not get any CD/DVD showing up anywhere in my system, whereas
Bugreport #129708 does.
What I don't understand is, if I can boot up the Ubuntu CD and install
it, why is the drive lost after installation?
One thing I noticed during install was, it adds the sbp2 module
(something about firewire CDROM access) to /etc/modules. I tried
commenting out this module and rebooting, hoping it might restore the
DVD device, but it did not.
Any help appreciated, because if I can't get the DVD device working I'll
have to go back to Vista :-(
