Greetings Debianists! I have been happily using make-kpkg to build my own kernel debs for a while, and recently found that the cdrecord version in sid will not play nicely with new kernels (2.6.9-something and above). I am using kernel 2.6.10, running sid on an Athlon 1.3 (tb), and got an LG CD-writer.
I have reviewed the bugs in the Debian BTS, and they all refer to incompatibilities, but no references to lockups. Well, my system locks up hard when I try to burn CDs, and I have to reset the box... It happens after CD-burning starts -- the CD-writer led keeps blinking, even after some seconds, when the machine freezes. I have also downloaded and compiled coaster (which uses libburn), tried to burn a CD, and the box also locks up hard (magic sysrq doesn't work). I also patched and compiled cdrecord (I used the patch in #267273), and got the same problem. Do you people remember having seen this problem reported before somewhere? Or could this be a hardware problem (my power supply was fried a week ago and I had to replace it). I'd appreciate if anyone could point me in the right direction. Thanks a lot! -- mnunes -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
