I had originally only been testing this with sound-juicer, but it looks like the disc probing fails for other disc types (e.g. writable media in Brasero).
For a CD-R, I get the same GET_CONFIGURATION error, and using the natty version of the tool gives additional media attributes: ID_CDROM_MEDIA_CD_R=1 ID_CDROM_MEDIA_STATE=complete ID_CDROM_MEDIA_SESSION_COUNT=1 ID_CDROM_MEDIA_TRACK_COUNT=1 ID_CDROM_MEDIA_TRACK_COUNT_DATA=1 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/742212 Title: /lib/udev/cdrom_id does not correctly probe audio CDs on USB drive (maverick) -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
