Product: devfsd
Component: program
Summary: Parallel ZIP causes ldm_validate_partition_table()
error, and slow login
Version: 1.3.25-23mdk
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: P2
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
- plug a 100MB parallel zip drive on the parallel port
- remove any zip from the drive
- check with "cdrecord -scanbus" that the zip drive is actually installed (ppa
module)
- run: "find /dev/scsi"
--> error ldm_validate_partition_table() : read disk failed
The error appears on the device representing the ZIP drive.
WARNING : this problem is causing a slow login :
**********************************************************
At each first user login, the owner of the /dev entries are changed (devfsd?).
This leads to an error when changing owner of the Zip device.
Since the query and the error takes about 1,5 sec and they are repeated 3 times
at login, the login is considerably slowed down, and takes up to 5 sec.
