** Description changed: Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.24 My IDE DVD-RW drive (NEC-Optiarc AD-7173A) worked without problems in Gutsy. It worked with kernel module via82cxxx for VIA controler on my M/B (was seen as /dev/hdc) in 2.6.22 kernel from Gutsy. I've made upgrade to Hardy Beta 3 days ago. In Hardy Beta with kernel 2.6.24-15 (linux-image-2.6.24-15-generic) there is no via82cxxx kernel module - it has been replaced with pata_via module. This new module recognizes my - DVD drive and apps generally se it but I cannot do anything usefull with - it - Audio-CDs don't work anymore, DVDs cannot by played, burning apps - stop burning after few sectors. I nailed down this problem to pata_via - module - I've blacklisted it and copied via82cxxx kernel module from - latest kernel with it (2.6.24-12). And now everything works as expected - and as it was in Gutsy. + DVD drive and apps generally see it (as /dev/sr0) but I cannot do + anything usefull with it - Audio-CDs don't work anymore, DVDs cannot by + played, burning apps stop burning after few sectors.
