Dear list!
Prior to buy a new device,
I'd like to hear if some-one
has advice about my problem.
Some time ago, my TEAC cd
writer, named W-540E started
to act odd. It is slave, ide,
and managed through atapicam.
When I put medium into, it
starts to blink for a 30 or
more seconds. Finaly, when
the light is down, I mount it
(with /dev/cd0 to /cdrom) and
get more blinking over and
over. Helps to make Control-C,
get "#" back and wait for 30
or 40 more seconds for final
mount. In this moment I have
release 5_1 on cheap hardware,
but it was even worse with
4_7 or 5_0. Now it does not
reboot as did previously.
I cannot find any irq con-
flict. Mounting, system gives
error message like this:
(cd0:ata0:0:1:0) READ(10).CDB:28 0 0 2 8 a a 2 0 0 1 0
CAM Status: SCSI Status Error
SCSI Status: Check Condition
MEDIUM ERROR info:28aa2 asc:2,0
No seek complete
Retrying Command(per Sense Data)
My first ideas were bad
cabling or almost dead cd
drive. In dmesg:
atapci0: Correcting VIA config for \
southbridge data coruption bug
acd0: CD-RW <CD-W540E> ar ata0-slave PIO4
cd0: <TEAC CD-W540E 1.0D> Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device
Memory stick, emulated through
scsi, works fine. The same cd dri-
ve worked as expected, when I did
buy it. Or I was wrong.
Finaly, writers are cheap and
it will be the best solution to
me. If it is the case. I know that
something could be mismanaged by
myself.
Oh! I read "digest". So, additio-
nal information could be available
next day.
Best regards
ZK
