Thank you for the advice. PnP was already disabled in my BIOS. However, it looks like I found a solution. I did the following:
1. downloaded .config for the latest debian kernel (I guess 2.6.26) 2. downloaded the latest kernel (2.7.27.7) from kernel.org 3. compiled it the usual debian/ubuntu(make-kpkg) way using the downloaded .config (with minor almost random modifications) 4. bootted into the custom kernel. Yesterday I have tested my system for 3-4 hours burning disks, doing cat ./* > /dev/null on several CDs and DVD disks for some manytimes just to make sure. I have not seen a single message of the kind reported above. It is close to 24hours of constant work without these problems. Although I keep my fingers crossed. If the solution is really working is there a way to keep a standard debian kernel in my ubuntu sources. I just want all the security patches and the stability of debian kernel :-) May be that is a hint to ubuntu kernel team to check what they have tweaked wrong? -- ATAPI devices malfunctioning https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/231575 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
