So for the CD-ROM one, the kernel clearly sees one: Oct 2 10:43:41 david-coggins-unr kernel: [ 7.677548] scsi 3:0:0:0: CD-ROM TSSTcorp CD/DVDW SH-S162L TS06 PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 Oct 2 10:43:41 david-coggins-unr kernel: [ 7.955373] sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 48x/48x writer dvd-ram cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray
udev's detection turns up this: ID_MODEL=U3_Cruzer_Micro so if you really don't have a physical CD-ROM drive in this, then I'd say that this USB thingy emulates a fake CD-ROM. Some devices do that nowadays (many USB 3G sticks do), to ship windows drivers. I believe that's what is happening there. Can you please open it in nautilus and see what it contains? -- cdrom0 and floppy0 not physically present https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/437415 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
