Workaround Found for Re: CD-RW ide-scsi problem presists with 2.4.4 (was Re: Problem with 2.4.1/2.4.3 and CD-RW ide-scsi drive)

Thanks to an email I got (hi Thomas!), I was able to use a workaround to the problem described below. I don't know if it's the accepted fix or not, but it worked for me. What I did was set the DMA mode of the drive differently. I used the following hdparm command: hdparm -d 1 -X 34 /dev

Hi there, in fact I had the same problem with ide-scsi that you mentioned. I also tried the kernel version 2.4.4 but it did not solve the problem. I have a CD-RW drive (/dev/hdd resp. /dev/sr1) that was fully functional even in ide-scsi mode. I also have a CD-ROM drive (/dev/hdb resp. /dev/sr0)

I had received info that this may have been fixed in 2.4.3-ac5. I didn't get the chance to test it there, but I installed 2.4.4 this morning. Alas, I receive exactly the same errors with 2.4.4 as I did previously with 2.4.3. One thing that did differ, though, shortly after I sent this first ema

I've got an update for this problem I emailled about last night (and for which I only received one reply :-) ). Strangely enough, I'm able to actually burn a CD using the cd-rw described below, and can verify data written to it (using X-CD-Roast). I still can't actually mount a cd in the drive wi

Hi there. I just got a new CD-RW drive and am trying to get it working under Linux. I've got the ide-scsi modules all loaded, but have weird errors when trying to mount a disk. Here are the messages from "dmesg" that I get when the ide-cd and ide-scsi modules are loaded. My DVD-ROM is /dev/hdc
