Subject: linux-2.5.64-mm5 crashes on software eject of cdrom

Hello,

Linux 2.5.64-mm5 seems to crash when I do an eject on
either the cdrom/dvdrom or the cd-rw, by a software
command. (1: gnome-cdplr-applet, 2: grip auto-ejecting, 3:
final test with a simple: eject).

I couldn't find any log reporting on this problem.
I use an 850 MHz Athlon, VIA-<something> mainboard, 256 M
memory, a Samsung cd/dvd-rom, a Benq cd-rw. Running the
newest Gentoo Linux.

You're not alone on this issue... I have experimented the
same problems with 2.5.64-mm5 and 2.5.64-mm6 on my
RedHat Phoebe3 laptop.

Don't know what's causing it, but haven't experienced
this kind of freezes with stock 2.5 kernels.

Thanks!

Felipe
