I have been using psyche for a few days now and when I rip or burn with my cdrom (a plextor 40/12/40A IDE burner) my comp[uter becomes almost entirely unresponsive. The mouse will not even move the cursor in a smooth line. The burner was configured with the hda=ide-scsi by the installer. I have tried setting the DMA mode to on with 'hdparm -d1 /dev/hda' and I still have the same problems. This problem has never been so bad with previous versions of redhat on the same machine. It also is non-existent in windows. I assume I have something configured wrong and would appreciate a nudge in the right direction. thanks, Matt Whiteley
