New iso image dated 2010-03-17; this is now working. It would be nice to see the drive again.

Cd/dvd is not recognized in Lucid. Only when the cd/dvd is in the tray at startup it works as expected and was no issue upto Karmic.

In Disk Utility the cd/dvd drive is shown as normal, however the disk information under Volume is "unknown".

I can force Lucid to mount the disk by pressing the Format disk control in the Disk Utility. After an error message the disk is recognized, shown on the desktop and in /system/media.

As said before, the system works fine in Karmic, where this device is known in /etc/fstab.

P.S. the mentioned items can be called somewhat else, I use a different language.

jgv: the original reporter has marked their bug as Invalid - if you are
still having problems, then it is impolite to reopen their bug -
especially without explanation.

Instead please file a new bug.
