Sort of. I noticed that I had forgotten to turn off my computer last night. When I unlocked the screen, I saw a tab open to this page: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/49921 I can't find a reference to this link in any of the mail on this topic; if you sent it, please say so. Or not; it's sort of cool to believe it just appeared from nowhere. Ubuntu shall provide. Anyway, the above link has a workaround: change the jumper from slave to cable select, which AFAIK should be the wrong setting, but it works. I have not tested burns yet, but it does play a CD. It also does not appear in the menu under Places. Navigate to PlacesComputer, and it is in the file browser window that opens. I am still working with the ubuntu-studio-developers folks in case they want to patch something so the jumper change is not necessary.

Paul, can't follow this instruction w/o more; going from placescomputer, I find the following: computer:///750%20GB%20Hard%20Disk.drive computer:///750%20GB%20Hard%20Disk-1.drive computer:///CompactFlash%20Drive.drive computer:///Floppy%20Drive.drive computer:///MemoryStick%20Drive.drive computer:///SecureDigital%20Drive.drive computer:///SmartMedia%20Drive.drive computer:///root.link Apologies, have a meeting in minutes from now... Back later to try the work around. Ken On Thu, May 27, 2010 at 11:57 PM, Paul DeShaw pauldes...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, A miracle happened. Sort of.
