I just wanted to add for all to see that prior to the CDRIOC* changes,
all was OK with my HP 8250i CD-RW unit, reading and writing both
worked fine. After the changes, writing no longer works. All I get is
WRITE_BIG errors from burncd (the write light never turns on) then the
driver endlessly tries to reset the CD-R drive and I have to hit the
reset button to reboot.
My HP Colorado 8G ATAPI tape never probed/worked at all with the new
ATA driver. Anyone out there have one that's working?
The wd* drivers, although obselete now, handled all of my ATA-ATAPI
stuff without any problems.
I find it hard to believe that 4.0 will get released with less
hardware support than 3.x.
