Your CD-ROM drive stopped responding

and never came back.

It would be very interesting to know if an older kernel doesn't trigger
this.

I can keep running 2.6.16.41 for a few weeks. If the problem does not
occur by then it is reasonably probably that it is newly introduced.
As I said, I am not able to trigger the problem intentionally :(.

Would it be possible for the kernel to realize that the drive stopped
responding? And make sure that it doesn't make the whole computer
unresponsive...
