| |
An ide dvd drive on my system is getting into an unusable state, which is cured by reboot. When it's mucked up, I get endless messages as follows, and processes accessing the drive remain in uninterruptable sleep for several minutes.

The drive remains unusable until reboot. I've tried reloading the kernel modules (cdrom, ide-cd) and issuing "hdparm -w", both of which have no effect. Momentarily ejecting the disc sometimes allows it to work for a bit, but rebooting seems to be the best workaround. I see in the archive that there have been posts about these error messages, but I didn't find any replies that address them. Is there a faq somewhere that covers this?
The kernel is the redhat kernel-smp-2.4.18-24.8.0 release. The mainboard is an Asus P2B-D (IDE interface: Intel Corp. 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 IDE (rev 1)).
Any ideas?
