Just completing my story. Tested the new ubuntu kernel, no change... so I gave up playing with the usb interface and moved the DVDR into the box connecting with the PATA interface. Surprisingly I got the same problem with PATA also. At that point I just got the idea it has to be a hardware issue. This drive is about 4 years old, I used a lot, no problems before at all.
I bought a new Plextor DVDR drive. Tested with PATA first and so started to use via USB. ... and it just works fine. I still get the reset issues in the log, but somehow the software does not seem to be bothered by that and it just works perfectly. Burnt at least a dozen DVDs since and haven't faced a single problem. To be honest I did not expect a hardware issue right now, since I just bought a new computer. The device used to work fine with the old box running XP, but never worked with the new one running linux. -- ehci_hcd module causes I/O errors in USB 2.0 devices https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/88746 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
