This problem occurs with several current distros, I'm asking here because I'm 
running OpenSUSE 10.2 right now.

I've been having these problems pretty solidly while running Linux, but the 
installations all run okay. Afterwards though, the problem all-but-hangs the 
system.

It seems to work fine in Windows XP (SP2), and I've booted into the IBM 
diagnostics (PC Doctor) and run the full set of tests: it passed everything 
except writing DVDs, but since it's not a DVD burner that's no surprise.

Here are the messages I get:

Google found a few hits, but I don't see a resolution to the problem. One, 
http://www.edlug.ed.ac.uk/archive/Sep2003/msg00143.html is fairly similar 
superficially, but I can get the errors without removing the DVD or the 
drive.

There is this: 
http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0511.1/1112.html but I'm using a 
standard SUSE kernel. Note that, like my computer, that's a Thinkpad R40


At present, I'm running without the drive: I rhink that's the same model drive 
I have. At any rate, the system's an R40 model 2722-GDM.

Is there anything anyone can think of before I feed it into Bugzila?
