I just wanted to add for all to see that prior to the CDRIOC* changes, all was OK with my HP 8250i CD-RW unit, reading and writing both worked fine. After the changes, writing no longer works. All I get is WRITE_BIG errors from burncd (the write light never turns on) then the driver endlessly tries to reset the CD-R drive and I have to hit the reset button to reboot. My HP Colorado 8G ATAPI tape never probed/worked at all with the new ATA driver. Anyone out there have one that's working? The wd* drivers, although obselete now, handled all of my ATA-ATAPI stuff without any problems. I find it hard to believe that 4.0 will get released with less hardware support than 3.x. -Bryan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
