gcd (playing audio CDs)
Hi, I installed the gcd package and I was able to play music CDs that
way. However, when gcd is running and there's no disc in the drive, I
get a constant stream of the following in the logs:
Sep 4 02:20:08 kronstadt kernel: ATAPI device hdc:
Sep 4 02:20:08 kronstadt kernel: Unknown Error Type: (reserved) -- (Sense key=0x08)
Sep 4 02:20:08 kronstadt kernel: (reserved error code) -- (asc=0x08, ascq=0x08)
Sep 4 02:20:08 kronstadt kernel: The failed "Read Subchannel" packet command was:
Sep 4 02:20:08 kronstadt kernel: "42 02 40 01 00 00 00 00 10 00 00 00 "
This is repeated every second, exactly the same values :-(
I am now scared to play even though is seems to "work", because I
remember that my previous CD-ROM drive (also IDE/ATAPI) stopped
working (for music _and_ data) shortly after I installed another audio
disc player (a text/curses based one) with similar symptoms.
The drive works perfectly for reading filesystem data.
