Description of problem: I have two DVD drives, one is a DVDROM and the other is a DVD-RW Drive. The DVD-RW drive will see blank DVD media fine, but once I burn something or put in a ragular DVD Video disc it won't show up under Computers:// In fact the DVD-RW icon will dissapear. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): FedoraCore 6 [bpeck@bilbo ~]$ rpm -q hal hal-0.5.8.1-4.fc6 [bpeck@bilbo ~]$ rpm -q gnome-vfs2 gnome-vfs2-2.16.2-1.fc6 [bpeck@bilbo ~]$ rpm -q nautilus nautilus-2.16.2-5.fc6 How reproducible: Everytime in the "broken" DVD drive Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert blank media and it sees it. 2. Insert burnt DVD media and it doesn't 3. Insert burnt CD media and it sees it. Additional info: hal-device output of a DVD Video disc which does not show up [bpeck@bilbo ~]$ hal-device /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_part_1_size_8201476096 udi =

Based on the date this bug was created, it appears to have been reported against rawhide during the development of a Fedora release that is no longer maintained. In order to refocus our efforts as a project we are flagging all of the open bugs for releases which are no longer maintained. If this bug remains in NEEDINFO thirty (30) days from now, we will automatically close it. If you can reproduce this bug in a maintained Fedora version (7, 8, or rawhide), please change this bug to the respective version and change the status to ASSIGNED. (If you're unable to change the bug's version or status, add a comment to the bug and someone will change it for you.) Thanks for your help, and we apologize again that we haven't handled these issues to this point. The process we're following is outlined here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/F9CleanUp We will be following the process here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping to ensure this doesn't happen again.
This bug has been in NEEDINFO for more than 30 days since feedback was first requested. As a result we are closing it. If you can reproduce this bug in the future against a maintained Fedora version please feel free to reopen it against that version.
