Re: 2.2.0 lock-ups...

I am having the same problems, and I also have a cd changer (Pioneer
604X - scsi). I've only had the lockups when I have had my cd-changer
mounted. Since my last lockup last night, I have left the cd changer
unmounted, and the system was still up when I got back from work. A
very welcome improvement. This has only occured when I've ran
2.2.0-pre9 (I did not try pre8, and 2.2.0 will not compile).

Anyway, has someone been playing with the scsi cd code?

Here is an expert from my /var/log/kern.log (debian system) with some
wierd stuff:

I have noticed, that the couple of times I've witnessed the lockup, I
was accessing the changer. Once playing mp3's from a cd that a friend
burned for me, and once while mounting the cd changer.

I'm not sure which occurance the above log fragment represents.

Hope this helps.
