Hello, I saw this tab open in my browser and it had a workaround:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/49921 It said to switch the jumper on the drive to "cable select". I can't find the message that sent me that link; but I think it was someone on ubuntu-studio-users; or else it was a link from one of the pages from Kirko's links. I noticed in the above Launchpad question that Ubuntu Studio was not mentioned, so maybe it is more general. Puzzling that Ubuntu can find the drive when booted from a USB stick. Back to Ubuntu Studio 10.04 booted from the hard drive: The CD/DVD drive still does not appear in the Places menu, but it is in Places>Computer. If I put an audio CD in, Audio Disk appears in both the Places menu and the Places>Computer file browser window. If I right-click on the Audio Disk in the Places menu, I get this error: "Could not open location 'cdda://sr0/' Failed to exexute child process "sound-juicer" (no such file or directory)" Right-clicking in the Places>computer file browser window opens a normal contextual menu. If you want to change any of this behavior, I am willing to test patches. I was led to believe that the "slave" jumper setting was standard, which is troubling...if that's how most people's drives are set up, there could be a lot of Ubuntu machines without working HP 840d drives. I have an ECS motherboard with an AMD 64 processor (2800+ ? not sure) and ATI Radeon built-in graphics. If you want more detail, please ask and I'll try to track it down.
