Package: cdparanoia Version: 3a9.8-11 Severity: wishlist -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
According to a recent discussion in the linux-kernel list http://groups.google.com/group/linux.kernel/browse_thread/thread/115745c4b8f0ab72/ vanilla cdparanoia doesn't support SG_IO and probably because the old CDROMREADAUDIO interface doesn't report all errors sometimes the rip is not bitexact. There is a patch from Redhat, that adds SG_IO support available: http://people.redhat.com/pjones/cdparanoia/sgiotest/tmp/cdparanoia-III-alpha9.8.sgio.patch - From the changelog there: - - new SG_IO code in rawhide. This means ripping will no longer use the "cooked ioctl" mode that it has since we moved to 2.6, instead utilizing the real scsi-based command set to talk to most drives. This should result in better error correction handling, and usage of much more commonly used kernel features. Emphasis should be on "should result in better error correction handling" :-) Might be related to bug number 222748. Also, I think http://people.redhat.com/pjones/cdparanoia/sgiotest/tmp/cdparanoia-III-alpha9.8.O_EXCL.patch is a good Idea too. :-) - -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-rc4 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages cdparanoia depends on: ii libcdparanoia0 3a9.8-11 Shared libraries for cdparanoia (r cdparanoia recommends no packages. - -- no debconf information -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDyTpTWeSjpYPhJEoRAh4xAJwPaa+lYh0OV6UyY1JEA1lisf4CkQCgtu9C Dv7RImQXQFbnc0exNkZU2d0= =Xhqe -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
