Comment 23 for bug 501207

I installed Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx Beta 2 to my spare partition and applied all updates. I confirmed that Brasero 2.30.0 is the version that is installed. The problems persists and is easily reproducible with Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Beta 2 and Brasero 2.30.0. Upon insertion of an audio CD into the CD/DVD burner Brasero crashes. Likewise Rhythmbox crashes. Sound Juicer crashes.

An interesting observation (as I indicated before) is that the problem was NOT reproducible under Ubuntu Lucid Alpha 2.

This leads me to believe that this might be an Ubuntu problem and not an upstream Brasero.

For confirmation of this, please see the following blog post:

"A system that supports my hardware. From some weird reason, the Ubuntu kernel maintainers removed a flag that cause my DVD burner not to see CDs. This is not the case in openSUSE. I actually tried to burn something off a LiveUSB before installing openSUSE. Yes, I could of recompiled my kernel with the right flags. But if I wanted to do that, I wouldn’t have moved off Gentoo to Kubuntu."

Please excuse the topic of someone leaving Ubuntu, but his assertion about the cause of this being the removal of a key compile flag might just be the cause of this bug. I would really appreciate it if someone from the kernel team would look into this compile flag issue.

Since this was not reproducible under Lucid Alpha 2, could the kernel being used then have been compiled with the relevant flag enabled?

Thanks.
