That would be the first one to do this since i began
to operate them on SCSI level in 2006. (I'm developer of
libburn.)

The drive is new. An LG GH24NSC0.
Regrettably it is built-in to the computer. So i cannot easily
make experiments with brainless power.

That's a very different situation. Most drives pull in when
power is switched on. Then the boot firmware and the kernel
might be curious enough to issue START/STOP UNIT.

But here i suspect to be victim of some fancy new feature
of udev or kernel. My list of usual suspects is empty now.
So i ask for new ones.


Have a nice day :)
