For example, 2.6.23.1: Linux version 2.6.23.1 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 4.2.2) #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Oct 26 13:09:09 CDT 2007 kernel: hdd: HP DVD Writer 1040d, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive kernel: hdd: ATAPI 48X DVD-ROM DVD-R-RAM CD-R/RW drive, 2048kB Cache, UDMA(66)
and 2.6.24-rc2: Linux version 2.6.24-rc2 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 4.2.2) #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Nov 9 20:41:37 CST 2007 kernel: hdd: HP DVD Writer 1040d, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive kernel: hdd: ATAPI 126X DVD-ROM DVD-R-RAM CD-R/RW drive, 2048kB Cache, UDMA(66) The drive seems to work correctly, reading and writing just fine. I just happened to notice this and thought I'd pass it along. One other odd thing while looking through the logs, 2.6.23.1 has also reported the drive as follows: Linux version 2.6.23.1 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 4.2.2) #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Oct 26 13:09:09 CDT 2007 kernel: hdd: HP DVD Writer 1040d, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive kernel: hdd: ATAPI 32X DVD-ROM DVD-R-RAM CD-R/RW drive, 2048kB Cache, UDMA(66) Any idea what is going on here? It's being reported as 48X, 126X, and 32X.
