[Bug 405544] Re: Kernel does not recognize blank optical media

[Robbie Williamson]

mp, I understand the frustration, but this bug is pervasive across
Linux, i.e. affects multiple distros and is not something we can easily
fix.  Just do a google search of "[sr1] Sense Key : Illegal Request
[current]" or "[sr1] Add. Sense: Logical block address out of range" and
you'll see.  It seems that it may even be firmware related, in which
case we can't fix it.  Couple of questions:

1) Can you test this with Maverick?  I'm asking because I'm running
maverick on my Thinkpad X301 with a USB connected CD/DVD burner and I
don't have this error.

2) Are you using a new, never written to DVD-RW or one that you erased?
I'm asking because that might indicate where we should investigate.
