Hi,
since my upgrade to openSUSE 11.0, which comes with 2.6.25.4, soon
after I start using my DVD player, I get the following in the log:

and this one repeats until I reboot and the drive becomes unusable. The
process accessing the drive is stuck and not killable. I also cannot
eject the drive.
The system is an ASUS A8V Deluxe, with the following controller:
00:0f.1 IDE interface: VIA Technologies, Inc.
VT82C586A/B/VT82C686/A/B/VT823x/A/C PIPC Bus Master IDE (rev 06)
The drive is a Lite-On/JLMS dvd reader on first channel as master:
ata1: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x1f0 ctl 0x3f6 bmdma 0xfc00 irq 14
ata2: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x170 ctl 0x376 bmdma 0xfc08 irq 15
ata1.00: ATAPI: JLMS XJ-HD163, GH5Y, max UDMA/33
It seems to be related to the drive as if I put a Plextor CDRW instead
of it, I could not see the error.
Neverthless looks to be a regression as I could use this drive without
any problem under openSUSE 10.3, with kernel 2.6.22.17 (and many earlier
versions as I have this drive for years).
Google gave me lot of hits for similar problem, but no solution. :(
Any hint what I could do (including testing patches) is welcome.
