Description Geraldo Veiga 2005-07-11 04:15:32 UTC 
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:
I am running FC4 on a Dell Inspiron 8100 with a SAMSUNG CD-ROM SN-124
CD Drive cannot be mounted.  Loading an Audio CD causes a system crash.  I had already observed this problem in some kernel releases of FC3.

After loading a data CD-ROM the following messages are generated:

Jul 11 00:53:57 ggv-win32 kernel: hdb: status error: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest }
Jul 11 00:53:57 ggv-win32 kernel: ide: failed opcode was: unknown
Jul 11 00:53:57 ggv-win32 kernel: hdb: drive not ready for command
Jul 11 00:53:58 ggv-win32 kernel: hdb: status error: status=0x7f { DriveReady DeviceFault SeekComplete DataRequest CorrectedError Index Error }
Jul 11 00:53:58 ggv-win32 kernel: hdb: status error: error=0x7f { IllegalLengthIndication EndOfMedia AbortedCommand MediaChangeRequested LastFailedSense=0x07 }
Jul 11 00:53:58 ggv-win32 kernel: ide: failed opcode was: unknown
Jul 11 00:53:58 ggv-win32 kernel: hdb: DMA disabled
Jul 11 00:53:58 ggv-win32 kernel: hdb: drive not ready for command
Jul 11 00:53:58 ggv-win32 kernel: hdb: ATAPI reset complete
Jul 11 00:53:58 ggv-win32 kernel: hdb: status error: status=0x7f { DriveReady DeviceFault SeekComplete DataRequest CorrectedError Index Error }


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.12-1.1390_FC4 and kernel-2.6.12-1.1387_FC4

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot system
2. Load CD-ROM
3. Examine /var/log/messages
  

Actual Results:  CD-ROM was not automatically mounted.

If I try to open it manually with

mount /dev/hdb  /media/cdrom -t iso9660

The resualt is the following:mount: block device /dev/hdb is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdb,
       missing codepage or other error
       (could this be the IDE device where you in fact use
       ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?)
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so

That really looks like a bad CDROM.  Do you have any different CDROMs to test with?
Comment 2 Geraldo Veiga 2005-07-11 17:55:12 UTC 
It started working again after a few days.  You could be right. It had happened
before (with FC3 kernels) and I associated the event with kernel updades.  

The reasons I am not just saying  "never mind" are:

1. Even during the downtime under FC, it still worked under Windows XP.

2. Loading an audio CD  would freeze the system.

During the boot process, there is still a funny message:

Jul 11 12:57:29 ggv-win32 kernel: ide-cd: cmd 0x28 timed out
Jul 11 12:57:29 ggv-win32 kernel: hdb: DMA interrupt recovery
Jul 11 12:57:29 ggv-win32 kernel: hdb: lost interrupt
Jul 11 12:57:29 ggv-win32 kernel: hdb: status error: status=0x58 { DriveReady
SeekComplete DataRequest }

Jul 11 12:57:29 ggv-win32 kernel: hdb: drive not ready for command
Jul 11 12:57:29 ggv-win32 kernel: hdb: status timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy }
