How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.boot system with SCSI cd-rom drive (and no scsi harddisk) 2.module is loaded automagically 3.log in in KDE and autorun is automatically started 4.The log file grows FAST
autorun is broken in this respect.
What is wrong about: open("/dev/cdrom", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK) = 3 ioctl(3, CDROM_CLEAR_OPTIONS, 0x1) = 12 ioctl(3, CDROM_LOCKDOOR, 0) = 671088640 ioctl(3, CDROM_DRIVE_STATUS, 0x7fffffff) = 2 close(3) = 0 nanosleep({1, 0}, NULL) = 0 ??? It is a normal user program only checking for the drive status. What is so important for the cdrom driver to log it???
