Should I try it on 2.6.27 or on the newest stable release subversion? Another question. Should I enable some more level of debugging to give you more information?

My drive is a fairly popular model produced by Samsung/Toshiba and installed inside many laptops (Acer, Dell and many others): it's named TSST corp CDDVDW TS-L632H. Probably if the problem is not only mine, you will get other bug reports soon, but I admit I have upgraded the firmware 5 months ago so maybe my bug is peculiar to me. Is it possible that a strange combination of firmware in the device and ide-cd linux module can lead to my problem? (Just guessing) I want to recall that I had not any problem until the last stable release and my DVD drive works well with ata-piix instead of piix as controller in 2.6.27. Here are the previous test results I have posted on bugzilla which is not the proper place... 1. I have applied the Boris' patch to 2.6.27 past Sunday and I have used that patched kernel for burning CD without any problems (indeed is my default kernel now). 2. Applying Tomonori's patch doesn't reach the same result. The patched kernel with his fixes is behaving from an user point of view as the plain 2.6.27 kernel. Burning a CD is problematic because the main processor is intensively working and the device buffer reaches 0% quite often, obliging k3b to slowdown the burning speed. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
