------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-30-07 08:38 ------- In my observation, this _seems_ to be fixed in the current 9.2 Beta 1. I am currently using an LG DVD/RW drive, and have not encountered this problem, as I have in previous versions. Can anyone else confirm this? -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: NEW creation_date: description: While adding, removing, or updating sources in the software updater, the CD-ROM drive is frequently checked. If the CD-ROM is empty and supermount is enabled, the CD is tested and takes approximately 1-2 minutes to be recognized as empty before the software manager continues. This can be observed on the CD drive from the light. When this situation occurs, the Software Manager appears to the user to have "locked up" and becomes unresponsive. The temporary workaround is to have a CD (any CD, including an audio CD, which is what I do) in the drive. The seek on the drive will drp to 1-2 seconds and the software manager will appear to work. I'm not sure where the specific problem lies, but I think it may have to do with the fact that when adding or removing sources (urmpi), all of the currently defined sources appear to be checked. In reality, adding or removing should not check everything else, simply add or remove.
