The problem was fixed by upgrading the firmware of my TS-L632D optical drive. |
Description of problem: Acer Aspire 5583WXMi laptop temporarily freezes for 15-30 secs (see dmesg extract below). I believe it is a problem with the DVD drive, but I am not sure. The system always recovers without any apparent damage to data. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.24.3-12.fc8 Also occurs with 2.6.23.15-137.fc8 How reproducible: Unfortunately, cannot reproduce as problem is intermittent. The issue occurs regardless of whether or not there is heavy disk use, and even if the dvd-rom drive is not being used. Actual results: Random temporary freezes lasting for 15-30 secs, then system resumes normally Expected results: No such freezes Additional info (dmesg extract): ata1.01: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen ata1.01: cmd a0/00:00:00:08:00/00:00:00:00:00/b0 tag 0 pio 8 in ata1.01: status: { DRDY } ata1: port is slow to respond, please be patient (Status 0xd0) ata1: device not ready (errno=-16), forcing hardreset ata1: soft resetting link ata1.00: configured for UDMA/100 ata1.01: configured for UDMA/33 ata1: EH complete
