From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050524 Fedora/1.0.4-4 Firefox/1.0.4 Description of problem: After updating to kernel-2.6.12-1.1387_FC4, I get an Oops when the CD drive is accessed. Sorry, I have not transcribed the Oops output and I'm not set up to do a serial console or net dump. This happens any time the CD drive is accessed, even at boot time if there's media in the drive. I'm on a P4 system with just the FC4 installation and updates. Reverting to kernel 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 solves the problem. This is the CD drive, as reported by cdrecord --scanbus: scsibus1: 1,0,0 100) 'SONY ' 'CD-RW CRX160E ' '1.0e' Removable CD-ROM Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.12-1.1387_FC4 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install FC4 2. Use yum or similar to get latest updates 3. Oops when CD is accessed Actual Results: OOPS Expected Results: no OOPS Additional info:
Created attachment 116400 [details] outptu of lshal Similar problem here. I get a kernel error when booting is a DVD is present in my DVD-drive when booting. In my case removing the DVD fixes the problem. After boot-time, I can use the DVD drive without problem. This happens since upgrading to 2.6.12-1.1387_FC4. It didn't happen with 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4. Since this happens at home I don't have another PC to log kernel messages to, sorry.
I see this kind of oops too, but on x86_64 - when using dd to make an ISO image of a cd. My drive is "_NEC DVD_RW ND-3520A, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive" according to dmesg. The previous kernel does not have this problem, though it complains a bit about the cd during copying, there is possibly a scratch on it.
