Ok I just started noticing unusual things on my IDE DVD-RW as well, presumably related, on 2.6.13-rc6. Putting in a cd and trying to read it will cause huge delays and then error out with: ide-cd: cmd 0x28 timed out hdc: DMA timeout retry hdc: timeout waiting for DMA hdc: status timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy } ide: failed opcode was: unknown hdc: drive not ready for command hdc: ATAPI reset complete then it will read fine. If I start another read it goes through the same cycle. Forcing dma *off* with hdparm fixes the problem and all subsequent accesses don't have this pause, however this was never an issue on previous kernels with dma working fine. relevant lspci: 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) USB UHCI Controller #1 (rev 02) 00:1d.1 USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) USB UHCI Controller #2 (rev 02) 00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) USB UHCI Controller #3 (rev 02) 00:1d.7 USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-M) USB 2.0 EHCI Controller (rev 02) hdparm info of hdc: /dev/hdc: ATAPI CD-ROM, with removable media Model Number: LITE-ON DVDRW SOHW-1653S Serial Number: Firmware Revision: CS02 Standards: Used: ATAPI for CD-ROMs, SFF-8020i, r2.5 Supported: CD-ROM ATAPI-2 Configuration: DRQ response: 50us.
