[ Solved ] Unable to load / mount data CD's after upgrading to 15.10

Hi,

Ever since upgrading to 15.10 when trying load any data CD it is not recognised.

Any ideas on how to fix this ? Do I just do a fresh install of Ubuntu MATE ?

Thanks

Run a full system update, check that your software sources download location is set to "Main server" first!:

Ubuntu Mate Update Guide

These are my own setting preferences, use at your own risk!. AN IMPORTANT NOTE FOR LINUX BEGINNERS.

Click on "Subscribe…

See if that fixes the problem!.

I’m having the same problem. The system is up to date. Did not have issues in 15.04.

Hi,.
I haven’t been much online in the last few months due to my internet being down.

Just done a full system update and looks like the updates have fixed the problem
