I have not created any fdi files myself but since the problem seems
to be cd/dvd related i already went ahead and actually loaded the
atapicam kernel module and restarted hald ... unfortunately the problem
persists though in a mitigated form ... the increase with atapicam
loaded seems to be at 40k/10sec instead of 140k/10s without atapicam
loaded.

Whether i have inserted or not does not seem to have any impact on the
problem whatsoever though.
