From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.6 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20020827 Description of problem: After updating the kernel to 2.4.18-17.8.0 and then to 2.4.18-18.8.0 using errata, I received the following error when trying to burn a cd: cdrecord: No such device. Cannot open '/dev/pg0'. Cannot open SCSI driver. If boot back into Redhat with the kernel that came with my redhat 8.0 installation CDs, which is 2.4.18-14, then I can record cd's all day long with the same drive without any errors at all. Both of the newer kernels, however, report the above given problem. The permissions on /dev/pg0 have not changed. I don't think you will be able to reproduce the problem without having my setup, but hopefully you can make some sense out of the error message combined with the fact that it only happens with two latest Redhat kernels, not the original with 8.0. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.type cdrecord -scanbus 2. 3. Actual Results: cdrecord: No such device. Cannot open 'dev/pg0'. Cannot open SCSI driver. Expected Results: No errors from scanbus, and I am able to record CDs. Additional info:
After booting back into 2.4.18-14 version of the kernel here is the actual output of the cdrecord -scanbus entry that is not working in the two latest kernel versions. The below is the "good" expected results: Linux sg driver version: 3.1.24 Using libscg version 'schily-0.5' scsibus0: 0,0,0 0) 'MITSUMI ' 'CR-4804TE ' '2.6C' Removable CD-ROM 0,1,0 1) * 0,2,0 2) * 0,3,0 3) * 0,4,0 4) * 0,5,0 5) * 0,6,0 6) * 0,7,0 7) *
Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem persists. The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/
