Hi, I have posted a bit long message on general impressions on using SuSe with IBM T42p. Now something more precise. When I try to play DVD or copy contents to hdd I am getting the following errors (dmesg): ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- end_request: I/O error, dev hdc, sector 1752 Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block 219 hdc: command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } hdc: command error: error=0x50 ide: failed opcode was 100 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DVD model is: Matsita DVD-RAM UJ-812 Os: SuSe 9.1 Kerenel(s): 2.6.5-7.111, 2.6.8 (SuSe 9.2), 2.6.9 (kernel.org) Any ideas ? Thanks, Tomek
