Hi
This is an OLD problem of NetBSD with the LiteON CDRW drives , I've
reported this yet on the "port-i386" mailing list sometime ago , and
with me some other people have replied to that accusing this very very
very annoing problem .
I hoped that this would be fixed in the meantime (from 1.6 or 1.6.1 , I
don't remember , but some months ago , anyway) , but this hasn't been
fixed .
The problem is this :
My model is LiteON LTR-52246S , I use the lastest FirmWare
The drive seems to be recognized correctly , and I can put a CD inside
it and use it for while the CD is still running in the device , but if
the CD stops running in the device , because the CDRW drive has not been
accessed by a few time when I try to access to it again I get this error :
pciide0:1:0: lost interrupt
type: atapi tc_bcount: 0 tc_skip: 0
pciide0:1:0: lost interrupt
type: atapi tc_bcount: 0 tc_skip: 0
pciide0:1:0: dmamode timed out
These messages continue to appear on the screen , until I reload the
device .
I don't know why NetBSD has this LOST INTERRUPT on this device , Linux
and FreeBSD stable have ever worked well .
Please , solve this , because I'd like to give a try to NetBSD, but
this stops me :-(
