Hi All.

I have discovered a strange problem with my DVD/CD -drive. I was going
to burn a CD but the drive couldn't find the disk. I switched to another
disk a couple of times -no luck.

Then I tried playing a burned CD I've been playing with no problems
before -no luck. Then I tried a comercial made CD -no luck. Then I
mounted the drive in hand and got a messsage saying there was no media
in the drive. Then I put a DVD in the drive -no problems.

Just to be on the safe side I booted the previous kernel, to see if it
was a bug of some kind in the new one -no luck.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong ?

It's happening in a "DELL Precision M90"
The drive is a "Sony DVD+-RW DW-Q58A ATA Device"
OS is UBUNTU latest version, fully updated.
Burning software was "Brasero"
and I tried playing the CD's with "Amarok"
