Package: acpi-support
Version: 0.90-4
Severity: normal
I've noticed that if I have my Thinkpad X40 seated in its X4 Ultrabase
and boot it up fresh, that I have a DVDROM (hdc).
However, if I boot up without it, then go to dock, the DVDROM is not
detected :(
I noticed that if hotswap is installed, I could run:
hotswap -c 1 rescan-ide
and this will register /dev/hdc
Which is pretty nice result.. however, although I have a /dev/hdc
/dev/dvd (which some things depend on) wasn't brought up.
Debian should be able to handle automatically detecting IDE
CDROM's after docking by now, it is 2007 after all!
Furthermore, ideally, I should be able to boot up my laptop out of the
dock, hibernate it (which works), plug it into the dock, wake it up from
its torpid state, and have a working IDE CDROM on /dev/hdc and
/dev/dvd
That said, it's not a huge bug but it would lend a certain amount of
functionality.

Hi,
I'm just going through a list of bugs and thought I would check this
against 2.6.24 in testing.
I still see the same behaviour, and after another 17 months user
experience, I can clearly see that this is a kernel issue and not an
acpi-support issue. When I was newer to Debian I had a misconception of
the exact purpose of the package hence I directed my bug report here :)
These days I rarely have cause to use a CD in this fashion, and even if
I do I could always either use the hotswap tool or just reboot.
To be tidy, I would suggest at your discretion that this bug is closed.
Done, thanks for reporting back!
Cheers,
Bart
