I offered to install Linux Mint for someone on a Windows PC (brand new) and before beginning the setup, I verified everything was running perfectly, including the CD/DVD drive, which is now not recognized at all on Linux Mint 22.

Any tips? I have scoured the search engines, Linux forums, Reddit, etc. for weeks. If the hardware was working before install (and I did not move or bump the machine after that)

It's OK if you don't know, I'd appreciate if you please just boost this note 🙏 TY in advance #asknostr #linux #linuxhelp

if yes you might check if proprietary drivers have been installed, consider adjusting the repository source.list file(s)
