[Bug 133083] Re: TS-H552L DVD drive light blinks constantly
The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test: 1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux- image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test. --or-- 2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD. Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel. Thanks again, we really appreicate your help and feedback. ** Tags added: cft-2.6.27 -- TS-H552L DVD drive light blinks constantly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/133083 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 133083] Re: TS-H552L DVD drive light blinks constantly
Just an update on this bug...I accidentally stumbled across a cure for this tonight. Udev was eating up 100% of my CPU usage. I poked around on the forums and many people were recommending removing Evms. The minute I did that, my CPU usage went back to normal and the constant polling of my drive stopped. I have no idea if this relates to the kernel or not, or if there was an upgrade to Evms at the same time as the kernel and it's all a coincidence. Either way, this is what fixed it for me. Which is nice since I couldn't even open the drive without it immediately closing. -- TS-H552L DVD drive light blinks constantly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/133083 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Two points, although this is all on a Gentoo Linux system, not an Ubuntu one: 1) you may need to run `hal-disable-polling` on the optical device. Read the man page carefully first, though - it discusses what polling is all about, but if you can turn it off, it will have positive impact on your power efficiency 2) when running a program based on dslm.c in the Linux kernel's Documentation/laptop_mode.txt file, I found that the hard drive light on my new laptop blinked once per $polling_interval. This was rather surprising considering the drive was actually spun down.
