Prerequisites

Are you running the latest version?
Can you reproduce the problem in the debug version?

Check and fill as appropriate:

I was running Aaru under Xubuntu 19.10...
...in 64-bit

Description

When trying to dump an Xbox DVD, Aaru prints the message "Cannot lock drive, not continuing." and doesn't dump the disc. I can't currently test this in Windows so it may be a Linux specific bug. DIC does seem to dump the disc without any issue though.

Exact command line used:

dotnet aaru.dll -d m dump /dev/sr0 "XBOX 1.aaruf" -f

Output of command execution with debug output enabled

Yeah, just to be sure it isn’t some sort of weird permissions issue with the firmware or something.
