Message #07742
[Question #78240]: CD-RW/DVD-RW not working
New question #78240 on Ubuntu:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/78240
Hi. I am new to Ubuntu and have had no problems with a change from Vista to Ubuntu, except!
When I put a dvd/cd in the drive, I get a message saying unable to mount drive.
I have an Acer Aspire 9300WSM and everything else works fine.
I have read many of the previous answers but I get confused with some of the instructions (Its an age thing!)
Could any kind soul please help me with an "idiots guide to.....getting a dvd working)?
I know how to get a terminal up but that is about it I am afraid. On following one of the previous threads I got as far as trying to add a couple of lines to my etc/modules, but I got a message saying I didn't have permission to change the file.
Any help for a 40+yr old newbie would be most appreciated
many, many thanks
