Description Leigh Orf 2003-02-09 17:37:54 UTC
Description of problem: Burning a CD with RedHat 8.0 consistenly
fails with scsi errors due to concurrent access to /dev/scd0 by
magicdev process


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible: Log in under runlevel 5 (X). A process called
magicdev will be spawned.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log in at runlevel 5 (X)
1. sudo cdrecord -audio -dao dev=0,0,0 speed=4 *.wav
2. cdrecord will begin burning and will crash. many scsi errors in /var/log/messages

Actual results:


Expected results:


Additional info: If you kill magicdev this problem goes away! Magicdev
is concurrently accessing /dev/scd0 which messes up the cd burn.

As far as I can tell anyone who tries to burn a CD using RH 8.0
with the ide-scsi module should have this problem.

I am using the default 8.0 configuration except I am using the sawfish
window manager.
