Upgraded Dapper today - DVD drive no longer reads DVDs!

[Sean Hammond]

Has anyone else encountered this? Any help?

I just updated a friends Dapper laptop, getting the latest packages,
in an attempt to fix a problem where DVD movies had saturated colours.
After the update, the laptop no longer reads DVDs! Which is pretty
bad.

DVDs are not automounted when you insert them, and if I go to Computer
and click on the CD/DVD drive and click mount, or if I use the mount
command, it reports: No medium found.

I have tried this with a DVD movie which was working fine a couple of
days ago, before todays update.

CDs are still fine - they automount and work as normal.

I filed a bug report with more info here:
