However, when I try burning a CD or a DVD with either cdrecord or growisofs, I get the following: interrupt storm detected on "irq17:"; throttling interrupt source interrupt storm detected on "irq17:"; throttling interrupt source interrupt storm detected on "irq17:"; throttling interrupt source interrupt storm detected on "irq17:"; throttling interrupt source interrupt storm detected on "irq17:"; throttling interrupt source interrupt storm detected on "irq17:"; throttling interrupt source interrupt storm detected on "irq17:"; throttling interrupt source interrupt storm detected on "irq17:"; throttling interrupt source ... I have seen a few emails on the mailing lists from people having the exact same issue with this controller 2 years ago, but I could not find any helpful reply. Is there any workaround for this? Thanks!
