Comment 65 for bug 266951

I have seem to have stumbled on to this bug and now my cd/dvd, on a Toshiba laptop, is now completely unusable. I tested the the cd/dvd with Windows Vista and works without a problem to eliminate problems with the hardware.

This seems to have started with an upgrade, but I can't say which one. I mostly use the cd/dvd for ripping my CDs for my blackberry and just today this started happening (it's been a at least 3-4 weeks since I last ripped a new CD).

On Ubuntu 9.04:
uname -a
Linux ron-laptop 2.6.28-16-generic #57-Ubuntu SMP Wed Nov 11 09:47:24 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
