[Bug 514520] Re: Cannot erase CD-RW with wodim after upgrading Ubuntu from 9.04 to 9.10

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: wodim
  
  When I want to erase a CD-RW with wodim 1.1.9 (under Ubuntu 9.10), I get an error message and the disk is not erased. The same command works fine in Ubuntu 9.04 before I upgraded Ubuntu to 9.10.
  As Brasero and K3b also use wodim they also cannot erase CD-RWs anymore after upgrading to 9.10...
  
  Below is the output of wodim under Ubuntu 9.10 and 9.04...
  
  Thanks, Andreas
+ 
+ Edit: this seems to be a kernel issue: after downgrading the kernel to
+ 2.6.28-10 (originally I had 2.6.31-17 under Ubuntu 9.10) I was able to
+ erase CD-RWs. However, this can't be the solution to the problem as I
+ don't want to use an old kernel. Also the problem apparently still
+ exists with kernel 2.6.32-7
