Nope... I tried several patches from Tejun, and also some that Jeff posted to linux-ide, but no luck. The only way to have this DVD-RW working is to use irqpoll on the command line... Sorry to have been unclear.... To complete, here are some more output from the machine : - a dmesg without irqpoll, - a dmesg with irqpoll, - a copy of /proc/interrupts 6 [19:33] rol@riri:~> cat /proc/interrupts CPU0 CPU1 0: 357022 0 IO-APIC-edge timer 1: 8 0 IO-APIC-edge i8042 4: 14 0 IO-APIC-edge serial 6: 5 0 IO-APIC-edge floppy 8: 1 0 IO-APIC-edge rtc 9: 0 0 IO-APIC-fasteoi acpi 12: 129 0 IO-APIC-edge i8042 14: 7639 0 IO-APIC-edge libata 15: 0 0 IO-APIC-edge libata 16: 0 0 IO-APIC-fasteoi libata 17: 0 0 IO-APIC-fasteoi uhci_hcd:usb3 18: 0 0 IO-APIC-fasteoi uhci_hcd:usb4 19: 204 0 IO-APIC-fasteoi uhci_hcd:usb5, HDA Intel 20: 107 0 IO-APIC-fasteoi ehci_hcd:usb1, uhci_hcd:usb2 21: 3 0 IO-APIC-fasteoi ohci1394 504: 8243 0 PCI-MSI-edge libata 505: 1 0 PCI-MSI-edge eth1 506: 386 0 PCI-MSI-edge eth0 NMI: 771 531 LOC: 569318 578684 ERR: 0 Regards, Paul
