Kernel 2.6.16 and before did that fine, but kernel 2.6.17 and above don't and give error messages. Which explains why downgrading the kernel solves the problem. (If it were a HAL or KDE/ GNOME problem then shouldn't downgrading the kernel *not* help?) Just thinking aloud ... The old kernel erroneously failed to report errors in some cases so the answer to that bit is a definite - no -. That side is a desktop problem. The fact people are saying that in addition vcd players are breaking is a bit more mysterious. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Need a quick answer?
