Hi! Same problem on a Toshiba Satellite A100, using Gnome on "etch". Data CDs/DVDs work perfectly, but when I try to rip with cdparanoia (grip) or to listen to audio cd (using the default gnome player, or xmms, it's the same) the system freezes and I have to power-off using the power button. When I power-up again I always receive a message like "inconsistent filesystem structure" (or something similar, I don't remeber exactly) when grub tries to load the kernel, then I have to boot using Knoppix and re-install grub. It's not so funny. I found this thread: http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/11/9/120 concerning this bug: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=391901 Before trying to downgrade cdparanoia I tried to compile kernel 2.6.19-rc6 on my "etch" but unfortunately it did not boot and I had not time to fix the problem. Now I'm using kernel 2.6.18.2, home-compiled, but I found the same freeze problem using the package kernel-image-2.6-686-smp (2.6.17). This is my optical drive: ata2: PATA max UDMA/100 cmd 0x170 ctl 0x376 bmdma 0x18B8 irq 15 scsi1 : ata_piix ata2.00: ATAPI, max UDMA/33 ata2.00: configured for UDMA/33 Vendor: HL-DT-ST Model: DVDRAM GMA-4082N Rev: HV02 Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 05 Have you got any suggestion? Thanks! :) Bye. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
