My DVD Drive is CAV drive. Thus at the beginning of burning process, it'd take a while for the drive to switch mode (higher speed mode such as 16X would take the longest.)
I've change ide-cd.c to use a large timeout and it seems to bypass the bug. The real bug I believe is the unrecovered soft lockup triggered by the timeout (waiting for the drive to be ready to take the write commands.) the current timeout is 10sec, I've made it 6*3*10sec = 3min. Now I can burn dvd (at 16x) again. -- Feisty freeze, kernel (?) tries to access DVD drive https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/75295 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
