I could not get Brasero to work either. It kept saying "unknown fault". Then it would eject the disk. After many attempts, I replaced the drive. It was older, but known to be good. No help.
On advice from the forum, I tried Xfburn. Sometimes it says it cant unmount the media, sometimes it says the drive is empty, sometimes it says the drive is in use, or "Cant grab the drive". I did get it to burn once, but the disk was unreadable in my DVD player.
The strange thing is that the problem did not start right after the upgrade to 10.04. I made a 10.04 install disk the day before the problem started. Come to think of it, just after the upgrade, it started telling me that it could not eject the disk and had to be ejected manually. It did this for about a week, then it refused to burn.
I dont know how much of this is relevant so I am reporting all the weird stuff it did. I have been using Brasero since 7.04. In my opinion, it is the cleanest, simplest software out there that can still do almost anything. I hope it can be fixed.
