I am running Ubuntu 12.10
When I connect an external CD drive via USB,
Ubuntu fails to recognise it - well it recognises it, but won't communicate with it.
Typing the command
$ lsusb
Code:
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 05e3:0701 Genesys Logic, Inc. USB 2.0 IDE Adapter
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 046d:c52e Logitech, Inc.

Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Typing the following command
$ dmesg | tail
Code:

Inserting an audio Cd then typing the following command
$ udisks --mount /dev/sr0
Code:
Mount failed: Error mounting: mount: no medium found on /dev/sr0
Inserting a DVD and typing the following command
$ sudo udisks --mount /dev/sr0
Code:
Mount failed: Error mounting: mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only

I am a noob so I don't understand what I am doing wrong?
