ThinkPad X31 + UltraBase X3, using the UltraBay for a CD RW/DVD drive. I used it to install Ubuntu, so I know it's working.
Was trying to install World of Warcraft from a DVD, using Wine. Wine kept giving an error saying it can't launch the installer, so I tried copying a file over. Wouldn't let me. I restarted the notebook, and ever since the drive WILL NOT mount.
/etc/fstab:
Attempting to mount manually:Code:gary@fluffy:~$ cat /etc/fstab # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 # /dev/sda1 UUID=49a84520-d68c-4121-bc8d-e278bb75110d / ext3 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1 # /dev/sda5 UUID=53cf8cc2-3dae-430a-8250-496ce948047f none swap sw 0 0 /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0 /dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0
Ubuntu does see the drive, but it will not mount ANY disc. CD, CD-R, DVD, or DVD-R, they all fail. I tested the ubuntu installer disc, and that booted, so it is a software issue, not hardware.Code:gary@fluffy:~$ sudo mount /media/cdrom0 [sudo] password for gary: mount: No medium found gary@fluffy:~$ sudo mount /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 mount: No medium found
When inserting a DVD, I can hear the drive spin and sometimes click, for quite a while. But Ubuntu will still not mount it. Getting extremely annoyed, having spent 3 hours now working on this (Google brings up NO solutions, but many others have this same problem).
