Re: Bug in 2.6.29 ide-cd: Kernel freeze: bisected + unacceptableworkaround

Hello Borislav,

I made two more tests:

a.) unpatched 2.6.29, boot with dvd in drive and starting
/usr/sbin/hald by the init scripts results in a freeze
in 2 minutes and about 10 seconds.

b.) unpatched 2.6.29, boot without a medium in an drive
but _not_ starting /usr/sbin/hald result in _no_ freeze!

I can also mount DVDs and access them, with an unpatched kernel
without started /usr/sbin/hald, without any problems, as far
as I can see.

Used hald version is 0.5.11.

Hopefully these observances will help somehow.
