Thanks to everyone that replied. I'm still working on the problem and plan to call tech support on Monday. The DVD drive is configured as the secondary Master with an internal Zip drive as a secondary slave. The media is not *broke*, it checked out fine on the other two boxes, a Compaq laptop and a Gateway tower, both of which are now running open suse 10.3. My present thought is that for some reason, there is a hardware configuration problem on the other box with the DVD drives. I remember reading somewhere that it may have something to do with DMA in conjunction with the drives. Not sure how I would check that though. Anyway, still open to suggestions and any other thoughts on this. Thanks for your time.
