Sometimes cleaning a drive improves things with some discs, when the drive is apparently working fault free with other discs (they're probably more readable). If it's a laptop drive, where the laser mechanism is accessible, careful hand cleaning is better than one of those discs with a brush glued to it (they bash into the lens). Or you could have some particular discs that are bordering on the edge of being readable, that work sometimes, but other machines are less forgiving. Some disc and drive combinations are not too compatible, though I haven't heard that kind of complaint for a while. I always use the best discs that I can get, because I hated having to deal with that problem. Some people just use the cheapest. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.

well, I've tested the DVDs on a Windows 7 and in a Gentoo box. They work fine. I've tested the
DVD drive with different DVD discs and it works, so I've opened a low important bug ticket in
bugzilla. I don't think it will fix :(
