Hi,
I've just bought a DVD ROM drive to do something with our player (mplayer),
namely developing a css module for it. The problem is that after random
time of massive usage of drive, my computer freeze. It's most likely to
freeze when I'm copying large amount of data, but with only playing
mp3 from a CD (using my DVD drive) it freezed as well, but after some
hour only. The kernel log is empty but sometimes I found some zero byte
series (^@) in it (see the attached file).
I'm using the following
hdparm settings (hda is my harddisk, hdc is my dvd drive,
run from init script):
hdparm -u 1 -c 1 -m 8 -d 1 -k 1 -X66 /dev/hda
modprobe ide-cd cdrom
hdparm -d 1 -c 1 -X66 -u 1 -k 1 /dev/hdc
Note, that with harddisk I hadn't got any problem for months.

Can you offer something to avoid freezes? My first try was to copy some
vob file from Matrix DVD with css-auth (reset,tstdvd,css-cat). The copyied
stream seems to be good (playable) but my PC freezed at the middle of
copying. It also happens when I inserted a CD into the drive and I played
various mpeg and divx streams from it.
I don't want to turn off DMA since it wouldn't enough to play mpeg2
streams (tested: on my CPU I'm able to play vob files from a CD directly
with our mpeg player and with the help of G400's hardware BES ;-)
PS: sorry for my probably bad English.
Thanx, Gabor

Erghh ... Sorry I forgot to attach the mentioned piece of my log file.
Fixed in this release of my mail ;-)
