Ubuntu and Plextor-760A failing to read most media
I just installed a new Plextor-760A in my computer, but for some strange reason Ubuntu cannot read most types of discs in it. The only type of discs that do work are DVD-Rs burned with UDF formatting for some odd reason... My other drive on the other hand, which is a Sony DRU-510A, works great. As did the AOpen DUW1616L drive I used to have in the same slot. Additionally, the Plextor drive functions perfectly inside Windows XP, and also functions perfectly inside a VMWare instance running Windows XP as a guest under Ubuntu. The only conclusion I can reach here is that Ubuntu doesn't know how to work with the drive, so I could use some help troubleshooting this.
