If my dvd is NOT empty there is no problem ... if it's empty I randomly get reports like - ata2 failed to respond ... - ata2: translated ATA stat/err .... - cdrom (ioctl) error ...
that freezes the system ... This problem not exists with kernel 2.6.12, it appears with 2.6.15 and 2.6.17 -- log says "ata1 is slow to respond, please be patient" https://launchpad.net/bugs/64587 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
