Bug Description

Linux wecan 2.6.31-2-generic #16-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jul 6 20:36:55 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
fails to find a blank cd to burn the image to.

Using 2.6.30-10-generic works as expected. Attaching those logs also for comparison.

Same problem here on amd64/kernel 2.6.31. Definitely a bug. I don't remember this happening in 2.6.30. In fact on Jaunty I had a 2.6.31 kernel where it happened and a 2.6.30 kernel where it didn't happen. Regression in 2.6.31 kernel is where I have my money.

I'm still investigating, but I think it has to do with gio.

Here's my drive setup:
750G WD
500G WD
250G WD
250G Maxtor
DVD-RW Drive

When I debug the brasero code, it's only coming across my 750 and 500G drives. And when it asks itself if these are CD drives, it obviously gets a response of no. None of the other drives are even coming through to brasero's code. It is a problem in gio, gvfs or deeper. I made a program to test whether gio reports your drives. Note that when you run it as root, it reports nothing. Why? Who knows...

All I know is that in Jaunty it works and in Karmic it doesn't. It can be tested in VirtualBox with passthrough mode enabled on the CD drive.

To compile the program:
sudo apt-get install build-essential libglib2.0-dev libgtk2.0-dev
gcc -o main main.c `pkg-config --libs --cflags glib-2.0` `pkg-config --libs --cflags gtk+-2.0`

To run it:
./main

My output from this program:

drive detected
500 GB ATA WDC WD5000AAKS-00YGA0
drive detected
750 GB ATA WDC WD7500AAKS-00RBA0

Another note of interest is that when you insert valid media, it is listed in gio. When you insert empty media, it is not.

To those for whom brasero works flawlessly now, it would be very helpful for you to run this program. And it would also be interesting if brasero doesn't work for you but the test program lists your drives when there's empty media inside it. You must run the program with empty media inside the drive to tell if it works.

I am able to burn cds using gnomebaker and k3b.. but not nautilus or brasero..

bug #405544 seems to be somewhat related to this issue, but there is a newly released version of brasero (2.27.90) that is supposed to have a fix for gio (at least for brasero.. i'm not sure if this fixes nautilus).

Nautilus tries to open .iso files with Gedit, Brasero & GnomeBaker can't recognize .iso images.

I was urgent to burn a CD, that's why I found this bug searching by "karmic burn iso images".

ubuntu does not detect the inserted cd as a blank one and e.g. brasero wont burn on it.
I can burn cd's with Windows 7 or Windows XP.
hope this information helps solving this bug.

However, I can bypass this bug and burn my cds and dvds using K3B.

That's why I've changed Linux distribution. With Debian Lenny I use my cd recorder comfortably (I experienced problems also with previous versions of Ubuntu).

Of course I hope this bug will be fixed soon, but... it's unassigned.

I just came across this on all two different up to date Karmic systems. A perfectly valid blank CD-R disc was not recognized by brasero or gnomebaker. I tried it in an earlier Ubuntu release and it was recognized and I could burn to it just fine. I have subscribed Martin Pitt (please forgive me if this is in error) since when this got reassigned to devicekit-disks, the right people were not aware of the bug anymore.

I'm very keen to get this bug fixed and can provide any information required. This may be related to bug #497232.

This is still happening in Karmic so it should remain open for Karmic. The machine is upgraded from Jaunty.

The Blank CD wasn't recognised in Nautilus. No CD was available when I did Right click/write to file from Nautilus. I cranked up Brasero, it acted like it was going to burn the disk so I left it and walked away. When I came back it failed. So I looked in Launchpad.

While gathering the info as in comment 5 in #497232 , I got a popup for the blank CD! That invoked Brasero (it wasn't Brasero on Jaunty IIRC). The size was reported as 12.8MB.

Anyway, I tried to burn again. The brasero log is attached. Now the scary thing. When I cut and pasted from the Brasero session log to vi in an xterm it took a long time and there was grinding sounds from a disk drive or something. I did that twice. This machine and its drives are fine.

So after attaching the files I'm to reboot and install and try k3b.
