Description David Hepler 2000-11-12 23:54:43 UTC
I am not sure what causes my problem, but each time that I am using the 
file manager and viewing contents of a mounted CD, an error pops up saying 
that magicdev has a problem and that I should remove the program. THen 
every minute or so Linux hangs up for about 5 seconds- it is almost like 
it freezes. This is all on a computer I put together myself - AMD 800 
Athlon, with 256MB, NO floppy drive, and a Goldstar CD-Rom drive pulled 
from a HP working system.
I also have received another error along with that, but can not remember 
what it was.

This is basically to be expected due to the way magicdev works - you can at best
turn off magicdev. :(

Erk missed the error part.

Can you provide detailed information on the error messages you are receiving?

Ten days with no reply, wasn't worth reopening anyways.
