I have the same situation; however, up until this weekend (January 16, 2011), my drive has been functioning properly. Perhaps there is something in the last kernel update for Maverick Meerkat that is the cause of the problem?
I am using an Acer Aspire One AO531h netbook running Ubuntu Netbook Edition 10.10 with 2 GiB of RAM. My DVD drive is a Velocity Micro 101 which Disk Utility reads as TSSTcorp CD/DVDW TS-L632M [/dev/sr0] -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/646293 Title: usb connected cd/dvd drive not showing up in Nautilus despite being in dmesg -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
