I don't know if it's related, but i have similar problems with CD devices on Debian-sparc with kernel 2.6.29. Eject is unable to open the device unless there is a CD in the drive. I can mount a data CD and read it, and play an audio CD in the drive with cdcd. All I get with wodim is "Cannot open SCSI driver!". This behaviour is the same for internal IDE or external scsi/usb CD drives. I see a block device 22:0 something or other error during boot. I don't have these problems using the old kernal, 2.6.26. I haven't investigated. Regards, Howard E. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
