Hi all,

I have just upgraded from hoary to breezy. It seems that everything
went well unless nautlilus-cd-burner does not list my dvd-recorder. In
the list there is only one option to create an ISO-File.

Here is what I've done yet and some relevant informations:

After upgrading I added some repos to /etc/apt/source.list:

~~~~
deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 5.10 _Breezy Badger_ - Release Candidate i386
(20051005)]/ breezy main restricted

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-updates main restricted
deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-updates main restricted

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy main universe multiverse restricted
deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy main universe
multiverse restricted

deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-security main restricted
deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-security main restricted

deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-security universe
deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-security universe
~~~~

After refreshing the source list there where about 300 packages to
update. So one can say my system is up to date.

My dvd-recorder is on /dev/hdd:

martin at martin:~$ ls -l /dev/hdd
brw-rw----  1 root cdrom 22, 64 2005-10-12 16:02 /dev/hdd
martin at martin:~$

A symlink from /dev/cdrw to /dev/hdd exists:

martin at martin:~$ ls -l /dev/cdrw
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 3 2005-10-12 16:03 /dev/cdrw -> hdd
martin at martin:~$

On my mind /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info is OK:

martin at martin:~$ cat /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info

I'm a member of th group cdrom:

martin at martin:~$ groups
martin adm dialout fax cdrom floppy tape audio dip backup video
plugdev lpadmin scanner admin burn
martin at martin:~$

Burning a dvd+rw on the commandline with growisofs was successfull.
The dvd-recorder is a RICOH MP5240A. With Hoary the recorder worked
out of the box.

Has somebody any hints?
