The patch for the cdu31a driver that was included in 2.0.23 and
2.1.5 broke my system; well, that's a bit of an over-statement.
It broke the ability to play audio-cds. Basically, it looks like
the drive is reporting the first and last track numbers in
BCD form (which makes a certain amount of sense) and not in
integer form (which is what the change assumes). I am a little
curious if this change actually works for anybody. Reports are
welcome.
