When burning a DVD-R with growisofs, the reported write speed is 4.00x, but the measured speed is only 0.40x. DMA is on and -20 nicing growisofs and mkisofs has no effect. Using ide-scsi, I can easily get 4.00x measured speed. However, until ide-scsi stops causing kernel panics, I'd like to avoid it. My setup is as follows:
Linux Kernel - 2.4.21 + bootsplash patch + updated lm-sensors, bttv, and v4l2 + loopjari crypto Processor - Athlon XP 1.26Ghz RAM - 1GB DVD+-RW Drive - Vendor: PIONEER Model: DVD-RW DVR-106D Rev: 1.07 DVD-R Media - Some Generic brand labeled "HQ 1X-4X" For the ide-scsi, the last thing in the log is always of the form: [kernel] scsi : aborting command due to timeout : pid 555338, scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 0x35 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 I can use sysrq to sync, remount, and boot successfully after the kernel panic. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
