Bug Description

Binary package hint: brasero

I'm getting a segfault on brasero startup on jaunty. My system is up to date.
I am running brasero 2.26.1-0ubuntu1 and libbrasero-media0 2.26.1-0ubuntu1

Rather like bug #335942, nautilus will also crash with a segfault.

I can reproduce this crash every time. The steps are:
1. Put an audio CD into my slave cdrom (a cd burner). If I put it into the primary (DVD drive, not burner) I have no problems.
2. Cancel when gnome offers to fire up rhythmbox.
3. Try to start brasero from command-line (or nautilus, come to that)

See attached gdb and valgrind output. I get the same stack trace from nautilus.

I listed steps 1,2,3 in my initial bug report: load an audio CD into secondary slave IDE device, cancel gnome handler, fire up brasero and get a segfault every time.

Doesn't seem to happen with data CDs, or with the secondary master IDE device (dvd drive).

Hardware: primary IDE has two hard disks, secondary IDE has DVD on master and CD burner on slave.

CD-burner is branded "creative CD RW" and shows up in dmesg as:
    scsi 2:0:1:0: CD-ROM LITE-ON LTR-12101B LS3J PQ: 0 ANSI: 5
    sr1: scsi3-mmc drive: 32x/32x writer cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray
    sr 2:0:1:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr1
