Hi all,
found this msg on kernel ML archives about 2.4.1[89] having probls with
CD audio ripping:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=103364684525654&w=2
The poster (Dexter Filmore) has the very same mobo I have (MSI K7T266
Pro2, Athlon XP) and he's experiencing similar probls to the ones I am
experiencing (in my case, lock ups are temporary, don't know if it is
the same with him). Tried the same kernels here, on RH 7.1, using:
gcc-3.2-1
binutils-2.13-1
modutils-2.4.18-2
I know this is a known issue, and you guys are working on it; I also
know many changes to IDE subsystem have been backported from 2.5.x
series, and 2.4.20pre* already reflect some (all?) of them. I don't want
to rush things, I was just curious to know the current status regarding
these IDE issues.
If you need additional info about my system configuration or log
messages, just let me know and I will be happy to provide it.
TIA,
Andre

2.5 has most but not all of the IDE updates in 2.4-ac. 2.4 vanilla has
basically old IDE code but with some small PCI layer fixes backported
that deal with all the i845G bios mess
Hi Alan, thks for replying.
So, this basically means 2.4.20 final will contain all improvements on
the -ac branch plus the critical backports from 2.5.x? Will this be the
cure to all my probls? ;)
Seriously speaking: do you have confirmartion that the IDE updates on
the -ac branch fix the cd audio ripping timeouts? Do you want me to try
it out? <newbie>If so, can I simply apply the 2.4.20-pre8-ac3 on top of
my vanilla 2.4.19 source code or is any other patch required?</newbie>
Again, thks for looking into this.
Best,
Andre

Apply 2.4.20pre8 (found in
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/testing ) on top of
2.4.19 then 2.4.20pre8ac3 (found in
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/alan/linux-2.4/ )
2.4.20pre8ac3 is running here, no problems.

Depends entirely on your hardware and a lot of other things. Right now
the ide-scsi code in the 2.5/2.4-ac tree still needs some more work
The 2.4 base code ought to be working (ie 2.4.19/2.4.20-pre)
Hi FD, thks for joining the party ;)
Thks for the pointers -- now I know how to patch my kernel =)
So, are you effectively able to rip audio tracks with 2.4.20-pre8ac3 or
did you just mean that it is stable (in general)? Do you have the same
mobo I have (or another one also based on VIA VT8233 Southbridge)?
TIA,
Andre

Sure, I understand. Thks for the info, maybe I will try 2.4.20-pre to
see what happens. I will post here any results I get (be them good or
bad).
Best,
Andre

I rip on SCSI CDROM... I can't rip from the IDE CDROM I've got,
that's weird, i'm going to try with another kernel.
and my mainboard is i815ep-based.
I sold the sole VIA I had...
