I am new to this site but I use Debian at work for some time now and my problem really comes from hardware support as files are burnt on the discs but can't be read.

It is not that drive is not supported. Blaming Linux that is not supported is selfish and immature. A lot of companies are cutting corners by not including all commands in specifications. Sure your drive may work in Windows, but Windows tends to not comply to specifications. I bet you the drive sometimes work in Windows, but only times you use it is when it works.

What is immature is pretending that Linux is the best system in the world, which it is not (neither is Windows). What is mature is adknowledging that Linux it still has some flaws and that they should be corrected.
As a user you just don't care that this brand doesn't comply to this or that standard. You see an item working under a given OS, you exepect it to work under Linux - that's all.
Despite those flaws, I'll stick with Linux. But what would the lambda user do ? Change his optical drive or go back to Window$ ? Think about it.
