+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1524207 +++ Description of problem: Any access to the CD/DVD drive usually ends up in a system freeze that requires a power reset to get started again. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 26 4.13.16-202.FC16.I686+PAE How reproducible: Any access to a CD/DVD drive Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert CD or DVD into drive 2. Access CD or DVD 3. Eject CD or DVD Actual results: System freezes Expected results: CD or DVD is ejected and system is sill useable Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert CD or DVD into drive 2. Start CD or DVD burning software 3. Eject CD or DVD Actual results: System freezes when blank CD or DVD is inserted Burning software starts then System freeze Expected results: CD or DVD created and system is sill useable Additional info: Fedora 26 4.13.16-202.FC16.I686+PAE XFCE desktop any attempt burn cds or dvds results in system lockup that requires hard power reset tried XFBURN, BRASERO, K3B and CDRECORD attempts read CDs and DVDs are successful but DVD eject message hangs on screen and shutdown waits on task to complete requiring hard power reset CDROM eject with drawer close results in system lockup that requires hard power reset CDROM eject with drawer open followed by log out/shutdown results in system lockup that requires hard power reset
DNF upgrade to Fedora 4.14.4-200.fc26 with XFCE desktop Problem still exists. Ability to read CDs/DVDs seems to be better but any attempt to write/burn a CD or DVD results in a system lock up requiring a power reset. Ejecting a blank CD/DVD without trying to write to the CD/DVD results in a message "writing data to CD or DVD" before the actual disk eject then a freeze up.
We apologize for the inconvenience. There is a large number of bugs to go through and several of them have gone stale. The kernel moves very fast so bugs may get fixed as part of a kernel update. Due to this, we are doing a mass bug update across all of the Fedora 26 kernel bugs. Fedora 26 has now been rebased to 4.15.4-200.fc26. Please test this kernel update (or newer) and let us know if you issue has been resolved or if it is still present with the newer kernel. If you have moved on to Fedora 27, and are still experiencing this issue, please change the version to Fedora 27. If you experience different issues, please open a new bug report for those.
Laura I've upgraded all of my machines to Fedora 27. currently at 4.15.4-300.fc27.i686+PAE. Problem no longer exists at this level.
Thanks for letting us know.
