Please use ubuntu-bug when filing bugs. There is no debugging information at all here.

Which udev version are you running? Yesterday I did two udev uploads (now 151-10) which should fix a lot of these problems.

Please make sure you are running -10, check if it is still happening, and if so, please do "apport-collect 562092". Thanks!

[FrenchNux (christophe-pauc)]

i am running udev version is 151-10.

[Gary Cameron (gary-cameron)]

This bug affects me also. I can collect the data, but it probably won't let me submit info to this bug - should I open a new one and run apport-collect against it?

The CD-ROM drive closes after a few seconds if I open it, and if I do manage to insert a 2nd CD it doesn't mount - I can't even mount it using sudo commands. There is no /dev/cdrom to mount.

[Gary Cameron (gary-cameron)]

Ignore my last comment - it seems to be working now.

I have the same problem using udev 151-12.

[Dibya Sanyal (sanyaldibya)]

I am facing same problem with CD/DVD.
If I place an working DVD movie) in DVD tray and close, system is not being able to identify and mount it.
# sudo ls -l /dvd/{cdrom,dvd}*
This returns nothing

If I place a blank DVD at the time of booting, udev somehow mounts the DVD after throwing lot of error. I can see /dev/sr0. Disk Utility reports the DVD drive correctly as:
HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T20N

But if I place a DVD with content then system does not detect the drive. /dev/sr0 does not show up under Disk Utility.

I am using udev ver 151.12.

dmesg and fstab is attached. Let me know what else do you need and how to get those diagnostic files.

I have AMD64 Alternate ISO installed. I have tested the beta 2 of the same and the DVD drive was working fine. It was working fine under Karmic AMD64 as well.

[Hernan Lopez (hernan-lopez+ubuntu)]

I have the same problem using udev 151-12 and Lucid 64 bits

[Cathy Preece (wyrd-howling)]

I am using a fresh install of kubuntu 10.04 alternate installer downloaded 4th May, 32bit with 2 LG Multi DVD drives. If I put a DVD in, the device notifier pops up identifying the disk. If I open a file manager there is no sign of it. However, if I click on available actions in the device notifier and select open with a file manager then I can access it.

I have created fstab mount points and fiddled about with the automount settings in the device notifier but to no avail.
 I suspect this is why apt cannot fetch any packages from DVDs.

[Dibya Sanyal (sanyaldibya)]

Can someonce help us? It feels crap to fall back to Vista (!!) just to play movies or listen to songs or anything to do with CD or DVD.

[Marcus K (3-launchpad-4-mvk001-spamgourmet-com)]

Sometimes I see the DVD drive, sometimes I don't. When I see the drive, everything works fine until the next boot, including playing movies. I don't know exactly what is making it disappear.
The udev version I have installed is 151-12, Ubuntu 10.04, and here is my dvdrw information, which I only see when my drive is detected: product: DVD+-RW GH50N; vendor: HL-DT-ST.

My workaround is to boot in recovery mode, and then "Proceed with normal boot". It looks like the drive is always detected when I do that. I end up at the terminal prompt. To open gnome, I login and type "startx".

[Paul le Roux (penmagic)]

Had similar problem with my cdrom drive. Found the reason and solution to my problem here:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1025786

Solved my problem by removing the the udf from my /etc/fstab where my cdrom was mounted from:
/dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0 to
/dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0

then remount your cdrom (e.g. mount /media/cdrom0)

Lucid is mounting with udf option in fstab.

Mounting the filesystem as iso9660 doesn't observe file permissions. Mounting as UDF does. Unfortunately, many disk burning applications leave -1 in the uid and gid permissions of their udf filesystems. This causes a permission problem in Linux.

The only way to read CD's as a user is by mounting UDF filesystems on cdrom as iso9660. Makes sense....

[Adam (adam-deosdad)]

I've solveg updating to last kernel.

[J. McDonald (mcdonald-joseph)]

There is a similar bug report for the PowerPC Ubuntu port located here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udisks/+bug/590448

In my case, forcing udev to poll for media immediately after it is loaded or ejected properly mounts the media and has the DVD or CD show up on the desktop. I currently do this by opening my CD/DVD/RW drive (which lshw shows as being at /dev/hde) using the following code:

eject -T && udisks --poll-for-media /dev/hde

I stuck it in a simple shell script that I can call from a panel applet when I need to load or eject a CD or DVD.

[J. McDonald (mcdonald-joseph)]

The latest kernel update did not help me, but since the PowerPC port is community supported, it lags behind the "official" kernel releases.

[Fabio Marzocca (thesaltydog)]

Updated to kernel 2.6.32-24, but the problem is still there: no cdrom/dvd drive mounted when inserting disk.

[Lord_Shadow (sheld0n)]

I also upgraded to 2.6.32-24-generic and still have the problem. I refuse to change hardware for this issue because both of my drives are identical and they both work perfectly using windowsXP. fstab tinkering has shown no promise.

[barrydocks (adrian-daviesandjones)]

I also have this problem with 2 different machines:
1. Newish Dell Vostro 1310. This will not mount any audio CDs with the internal drive or external USB drive. I have tried fiddling around with fstab and grub without success. I have also tried changing the bios setting from ACP to ATA. I I do have a copy of Mint 9 (32bit) running on VMPlayer on this machine which will successfully mount the CD. Here is what happens when I try to mount from the CLI:
~$ sudo mount /dev/sr0 /media/cdrom
mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: you must specify the filesystem type

Here is some other info
~$ sudo lshw -C disk
  *-cdrom

2. Old AMD 1600 system with ATA 33 interface this is running Mint 9 32bit. This will not mount the internal drive but will mount an external USB drive. I will post additional info from that machine.

This REALLY is irritating!

[Fabio Marzocca (thesaltydog)]

Could the proble be related to the IDE interface? I can't use both of my IDE CD/DVD drives, but I can use an external USB CD/DVD unit.

OK! I have found a fix for this problem!!! (actually found the fix in one of the fedora forums)

Let me first clearly define the problem that I am fixing:

Conditions:

1. CD/DVD/CDR/CDRW disks "unmount" themselves shortly after mounting.

2. dmesg reports the following - VFS: busy inodes on changed media or resized disk sr0

3. I currently have no entries for either drive in /etc/fstab... The problem was exactly the same when I had the "/dev/sr0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 noauto,users 0 0" or similar lines in /etc/fstab.

4. Once one of the drives "unmounted", only a reboot would allow me to mount again.

5. All other devices and drives mount normally (and stay mounted with no issues)..

6. My relevant hardware is: Asus P5N-e motherboard,
cdrom:0 :: description: DVD-RAM writer :: product: CD/DVDW SH-S182D
cdrom:1 :: description: DVD-RAM writer :: product: CD/DVDW SH-S182D

Both drives are run off the secondary ide channel.

7. The hardware (motherboard and drives) is guranteed to be functional. I could not get either drive to fail in WindowsXP during overnight testing.

FIX::

Add "acpi=off" to the kernel load line in /boot/grub/grub.cfg then reboot... For example:
linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-24-generic root=UUID=c82dfc28-0bcf-48a6-995f-b61464bcf056 ro quiet splash acpi=off

I have gone through 2 days of stress testing the drives and neither has unmounted AND there are no more errors in dmesg...

TO DO:
1. Get more users to confirm this fix.
2. Submit the data to the ACPI team if it looks like the fix is repeatable.

Take care,
Sheldon

[Fabio Marzocca (thesaltydog)]

@Lord_Shadow. I have your same motherboard (P5NE-SLI) and I regret to say that I can't test your workaround, as the "acpi=off" setting disables my Logitech wireless Mouse/Keyboard, so I can't login! I reach the gdm login screen but there is nothing I can do than switch off the PC...

Sorry.

[Lord_Shadow (sheld0n)]

Hi Fabio,

Do you have a wired keyboard/mouse that you can use to test it out. If we can get you and a couple of other people to verify, then we can resubmit to the ACPI team..

Thanks,
Sheldon

[Fabio Marzocca (thesaltydog)]

Lord_Shadow,

I will look if I can find one in some of my drawers, but I don't want to fix a problem and create a new one! I need the cordless Logitech.

[jplandry (jplandry)]

Same problem here but with an ASUS P5K-E motherboard. Turning off ACPI as Lord_Shadow suggested did NOT fix the problem, or at least only partially fixed it. With ACPI off I can mount CDROMs but I cannot mount/burn blank DVD-Rs.

As others have said, everything worked fine in Ubuntu 9.04, Ubuntu 9.10, and Windows XP.

[Martin Smat (msmat)]

@jplandry: there is already another bug about recognizing blank DVD and CD (bug 581925) and you can use Jonie's PPA to install patched udev. His PPA is https://launchpad.net/~jonie/+archive/ppa. Using this version worked for me.

[Lord_Shadow (sheld0n)]

Hello again all,

The 'acpi=off' fix that I listed above as a fix is no good... I had several days of flawless operation, but now the problem is back... I am not sure why I was able to work properly for a couple of days, but clearly this particular fix was not it. It may have been a coincidence or just dumb luck...

Anyway, I am rolling back to 9.10 right now. I will repost with the results later.

Sorry for the confusion,
Sheldon

[Lord_Shadow (sheld0n)]

Hello,

I have finished the roll back to 9.10 and the problem is completely gone (again). I played a DVD for 12 hours without any issues. I am not ready to call it fixed for another couple of days. I will check back after a few days.

Sheldon

[Michael Lipkin (mlipkin)]

Hello,

Like Lord Shadow I have an Asus P5NE SLI based system (PATA optical drive) (kernel 2.6.32-24 - 64bit)
Same problem:

Optical media not auto-mounted.
One time mount possible by leaving CD in drive when booting but disk only accessible for a while and then stops.

Rolled back to 9.10 and all is working (kernel 2.6.31-22 - 64bit)

Mike

[Lord_Shadow (sheld0n)]

Hi again,

Reporting back after a couple of weeks since switching back to 9.10 and I have not had a single instance of my optical drives failing to stay mounted. If there is anyone out there who needs any further information from me, or needs me to do any special testing, please let me know.

Sheldon

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

If you still have that problem on current 10.04 or 10.10, can you please add my sru-test PPA at

then upgrade your system (which will upgrade udev), and report back how it goes? If it still does not work, please describe the kind of medium which you inserted, open a terminal, and do

   sudo /lib/udev/cdrom_id --debug /dev/sr0

(with the medium inserted) and copy&paste the output. Thanks!

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

sorry: ... my PPA at https://launchpad.net/~pitti/+archive/sru-test

[FrenchNux (christophe-pauc)]

I still have thats problem won 10.10.
I install your sru-test PPA udev.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
   1. Place cd or dvd in disc drive, disc is recognized an mounted
   2. Eject disc
   3. (re)place same cd ord dvd in same disc drive and disc is recognized but not mounted

FrenchNux,

this cdrom_id output looks fine. Was that at the time when you had the second DVD inserted, and with the udev from my PPA? Did that change anything? Can you please revert to the previous udev with

  sudo apt-get install udev/maverick

and doing the cdrom_id output again, in the same situation?

[FrenchNux (christophe-pauc)]

Hello,

i tested with udev sru-test ppa and output after second inserted.
I compared output after 1st inserted and 2nd inserted it seems the same

output with maverick udev package :

Thanks, so it's not due to cdrom_id, that seems to work just fine; I need more logs for this, I'm afraid. Can you please run "ubuntu-bug storage" and follow the interactive dialogs? This will collect all the useful logs which I need to track this problem.

Since this will create a new bug report, I am closing this one (but please feel free to post the but number here, so that I can see the other one quickly). Thank you!

For me this bug has been solved after upgrading to Meerkat. Thanks for looking into this.
