I've been having this problem with Ubuntu 9.04 and hoped with an upgrade
to 9.10 would fix it, but this bug is still persisting. This is also
across multiple kernels including the current one for 9.10,
2.6.31-19-generic.
1. I have 2 Toshiba Laptops A100 and an A200 with the exact same symptoms.
2. On both laptops the DVD drives work perfectly in Windows Vista.
3. On the A200 still has Ubuntu 9.04 and the A100 with Ubuntu 9.10 recently
upgraded to see if this problem has
been fixed, which it has not.
4. I have attempted just about every kernel option available to fix the
problem, but nothing has worked :(
5. Neither laptop has BIOS options to adjust the settings for the DVD drives.
6. The problems has persisted for several months.
I have been googling this problem and it seems to affect several
distros; Ubuntu, Redhat/Fedora, Gentoo, Suse. I am finding that most
responses to the problem is it must be bad hardware or CDs/DVDs or due
to in activity of the bugs just assuming it has been fixed :(

I have also searched the kernel bugzilla, but it hasn't seemed to reach
them. Is it possible to forward this bug to them or collaborating with
other distributors to validate this bug? As far as I can tell it only
seems to affect laptops, but this problem gets attributed to bad
hardware so fast it's hard to tell.
As time permits I'm going to start further testing my hardware with
other OS's, BSD, Minix, ReactOS to see if I get any similar symptoms. If
there is anything I can do to help, please let me know ;)
