The lines that are interesting to me are: VP_IDE: IDE controller at PCI slot 0000:00:0f.1 sata_via 0000:00:0f.0: version 1.1 The above PCI id lines indicate that your parallel ata (IDE) device is really just a function of your SATA chip. Since your hard disk wouldn't be affected, I would try a kernel without IDE support and see if the SATA driver picks up your CD drive. -Richard -- [email protected] mailing list
