Ubuntu Help
Initially, my CD/DVD drive worked. I copied off old files and watched a DVD. Last night, I rebooted and my DVD movie was listed as a blank DVD ROM. A music CD was also listed as blank. I restarted and things worked again. Not so any more. When I run this sudo mount /media/cdrom0/ -o unhide I get a lovely message telling me my drive is write protected. block device /dev/hdc is write-protected, mounting read-only
I tried unmounting and remounting and making a mounting point (whatever that means) and still no go. I've been dealing with this off and on all day and am getting officially pissed off. The help forums don't seem to be helping as I lack even the basic know how to troubleshoot this effectively.
Anyone with advice, feel free to chime in. My computer is currently my only source of entertainment. I'd like it back.
Alright, I deleted a file and changed a few things around in no particular order. My DVD drive is working again, but I'm leaving this post up as I am in no way sanguine that it will remain operational.
