This has been the case for me since the ata driver was first introduced. In my case, it's a cheap Creative labs piece of rubbish which says ATAPI on the casing but doesn't fully comply with the standard. Of course, this _is_ audio CD's we're talking about. Hardly mission-critical for the kind of person who buys cheap Creative Labs almost-ATAPI crap. ;-) Ciao, Sheldon.
