[Bug 879627] [NEW] Brasero crashes the hole system – simple reboot -> pc still broken

[Klau3]

Public bug reported:

Oneiric 64-Bit up-to-date
Unity 3D
Brasero 3.2.0

What you expected to happen:
Burning an iso should work flawless.

What happened instead:

START
- Select and start iso image burning using a blank new CD.
- Firefox freezes and systems feels like it is under heavy load ~30 sec → 'System monitor' says low cup usage

MIDTERM
- Brasero seems to work correct for 1 minute. Firefox is no longer friezed. 

END
- Brasero says that 'burning was successful', but the mouse wheel icon is still turning and the disk not ejected. I wait ~1 min.
- Firefox freezes again. I try to open a terminal using a shortcut - doesn't work.
- I try to open a terminal using the Dash - Dash opens, I can search and click  → doesn't work. It's still possible to click on windows and get them focused - but it isn't longer possible to really interact with the computer.
- I try 'CTRL+ALT+F1'. After login I get immediately this message: [25612.493259] end_request:
I/O error, dev sda, sector 67385240

- Can't write only the error message is displayed.
- I try other "virtual" terminals with the same result.
- I do a hard reboot using the hardware key on the computer. Next shock - it doesn't boot, new error message:
DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT DISK AND PRESS ENTER

- I pressed the power button of the computer longer to shut it down.
After a view seconds I booted again - everything is fine.


This isn't the first time I have problems with Brasero. Every new Ubuntu iteration I'll give it a try and it never worked for me. Brasero doesn't work either with my old Pentium 4. Thats why I use K3B most of the time - KDE interface but it works.
