Unable to use DVD/CD Drive

[bra10n]

I have lost the use of DVD drive. Upon insertion of any CD/DVD, I get many, many open windows along the panel "Starting File Manager" until I eject the disk and all then slowly close.
Jaunty 9.04 (up-to-date)

I browsed System Log and under Messages Tuesday, 3 March found the following;

bra10n-desktop syslogd 1.5.0#5ubuntu3: restart.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is either missing or challenging to deal with as a ".crash" file. Please follow these instuctions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer.

If you are using Ubuntu with the Gnome desktop environment - launch nautilus and navigate to your /var/crash directory and double click on the crash report you wish to submit.

I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.

Hello,

I have the same behavior on my Jaunty. I don't remember when it happened first, around the end of March, but now, each time I try to insert something in my DVD reader / burner, nautilus crashes. I can see the following kind of error messages in /var/log /messages:
Apr 17 12:53:39 vd01 kernel: [12209.902032] nautilus[12221]: segfault at 8cda000 ip b50547dd sp b36c2fc0 error 4 in libbrasero-media.so.0.1.1[b5044000+1e000]

Deinstalling libbrasero-media allow me using my DVD reader, but brasero is no longer installed.

I also have the same problem I think,

I tested this right now:
1) I made sure I had all the updates, applied them and restarted.
2) Logged in
3) Waited a few seconds and put a recorded CDRW media:

Result:
First thing I noticed was all my icons on the desktop disappeared.
dmesg says:
[ 153.025715] nautilus[4276]: segfault at 9786000 ip b59d17dd sp b3365fc0 error 4 in libbrasero-media.so.0.1.1[b59c1000+1e000]

[JoseStefan (josestefan)]

As a temporary fix I've also removed "libbrasero-media0"
and went back to "nautilus-cd-burner"

[JoseStefan (josestefan)]

After seeing the error happen in dmesg, I don't see anything in /var/crash
launching brasero by right clicking an iso image algo triggers a similar segfault

[11122.754012] brasero[9201]: segfault at 910b008 ip b80477dd sp b67b2fa0 error 4 in libbrasero-media.so.0.1.1[b8037000+1e000]

[JoseStefan (josestefan)]

I found the crash file by restarting apport first (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Apport)
Then launching brasero.

I can't seem to right clicking and open with "Report a problem.."

It reads:
'Sorry, the program "brasero" closed unexpectedly'
'Your computer does not have enough free memory to automatically analyze the problem and send a report to the developers.'

So I am uploading the file directly.

While the bug has still not been fixed, the issue of Nautilus spawning multiple windows initially reported no longer occurs. A crash report is not generated either.

[bra10n (bra10n-deactivatedaccount)]

Can I ask why the "Importance" status on this is still set as "undecided", when this bug seems to be affecting more and more users of Jaunty?

[Rob Taylor (rstemail)]

I'm also experiencing this problem on Jaunty. Haven't noticed for a while, but a pain not being able to use brasero any more. This being looked at?

[timo (osborntandj)]

Never had the multiple windows open, but ever since I installed Jaunty, if i put any disk in the cd/rw drive Nautilus crashes.

Maybe I'll drop Brasero too, so that I can avoid the hassle of having to restart the machine everytime I use the cd/rw drive.
