This should not be a question. This is a serious issue with Jaunty.
We loaded jaunty on a Clevo notebook running XP. Somehow GRUB blew out the cd/dvd drives. They are not detected. In XP, they aren't even detected in device manager.....nothing, nada, simply gone. The cd/dvd aren't even in the registry anymore. However, when you put in a CD, the light comes on, it spins for a couple of seconds, then stops. We checked the BIOS, the drives are there but GRUB did something to break them. We can confirm its GRUB because LILO brought the drives back up. After searching the web, we found hundreds of people with the same problem. Changing this to a question is not beneficial to anyone. This needs to be addressed. The problem can be worked around using LILO, however, LILO breaks with the next kernel update. This happened to us and now we don't even have an OS. Please put this in critical status as our company is on the verge of going back to XP because of this. Our managers are watching this very closely to see how it will be handled. No one can use a OS that blows out hardware. -- DVD+RW PHILIPS PBDV824DP not detected by nautilus and is not mountable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/365633 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
