Description Matthias Clasen 2009-07-28 17:51:56 UTC
I insert an empty cd in the burner and open brasero to write an iso to it, but it complains that it doesn't have a writable medium.

CCing David, since this is likely a DK-disks/gvfs issue.

Comment 1 Jesse Keating 2009-07-29 22:40:00 UTC
While we should get this fixed ASAP, it's not really part of the critical path to get alpha installed, booted, and updated.  Moving it off the list.

Comment 2 Matthias Clasen 2009-07-31 19:24:54 UTC
Might be http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=589931

Comment 3 Adam Williamson 2009-08-05 00:44:20 UTC
This should not block Alpha, I agree, but it should block final release, not just be a target - shipping final with the default (and only installed) disc burning tool entirely broken would be rather bad.

I have the same problem here. I see the following messages in my kernel log on inserting a blank disc:

cdrom: This disc doesn't have any tracks I recognize!

Brasero does not recognize that there is a blank disc in the drive, but cdrecord (well, wodim) does and is perfectly happy to burn to it.

If I run devkit-disks-daemon at a console and then insert a blank DVD, the messages I get are:

Comment 5 Matthias Clasen 2009-08-14 14:44:50 UTC
This appears to be fixed with the latest DeviceKit-disks that we have in rawhide.

Comment 6 Peter Larsen 2009-10-08 20:55:53 UTC
Does this mean we won't get a backport to F11? I'd really prefer not to have to boot up in windows just to burn a couple of disks?

Comment 7 Adam Williamson 2009-10-08 21:06:04 UTC
If you want a fix for F11, open a bug on F11.
