[Bug 191871] Re: Live CD won't install on Acer Aspire 3050-1922

[Michelexub]

Hi.
I have the same issue and I agree with crhossen: my cd/dvd reader was working with xubuntu 7.10 and from 8.04 does not work anymore.

My laptop is an Acer Aspire 1310.

I was thinking about trying another distro, just to verify if the
problem lies with the new kernel or it is restricted to ubuntu family.

I'll probably try Fedora in the next few days.

In addition to what has been reported earlier: if I install 7.10 and
upgrade to 8.04 using internet, obviously everything works.... BUT if I
try to read a CD (audio/data) or a DVD (film/data) after few minutes my
laptop freezes completely and I have to cut the power.

I think that it is a major issue and should be looked into.

I don't mind spending some time trying different things as long as i can
see the light at the end of this long and dark tunnel!

Michele
