Today I made some tests:
- Plextor IDE CD writer on the same channel, using the same cabel. No errors.
- Lite-On LTD-163 DVD reader: works fine until something starts to access it.
Now it seems that it is NOT hald. I saw the errors coming after I run Windows
in vmware, so I rebooted and stopped completely vmware. Everything was fine
until I tried to play some mp3 from a CD. Now kio_file (from KDE) was using the
drive and I couldn't kill this process because the kernel was busy (and got the
ata errors).
So it seems that indeed the drive or the driver is the guilty one. As I said
sending from here is expensive and complicated. I found similar drives on eBay
for sale (without bidding) for a reasonable price. Can't you get one from
there?
Here is an example link:

As a final note, I had absolutely no problems with the driver with prior
versions of openSUSE, including the 10.3 version with all the updates.
