When I use the writing-capabilities (in simulation!), after a while, the
(simulated) writing process will terminate and my syslog begins to get
filled with plenty of repeated kernel error messages related to my
DVD-writer. My DVD-writer, from that time on, is unusable until
the next reboot. The only thing I found to stop kernel error logging is
to unload the ide_cd_mod module.
Here attached, you will find my setup and what I exactly did to
produce the problem. Please note that the first DVD-writing attempt did
NOT trigger the error, thus I guess there is some randomness included.
But I got the problem each time I tried to write at speed=1 (I guess,
because the time to terminate the process is longer so more chance to
trigger the problem).
Does this error still occur with more recent kernel versions?
Yes, it does. I just aptitude-installed linux-image-2.6.30-1-686,
rebooted, and tried wodim -dev=/dev/hdd speed=1 ...iso (some iso file I
had on my disk) and after less than one minute, the process stopped and
it began filling the syslog again, until rmmod ide_cd_mod.
Please also tell me how to reset ide_cd_mod and my dvd drive after a
crash if you know it, so that I do not have to reboot the computer
between each try.
Thanks for taking care.
Olivier
