feisty freeze after running gnomeburner

[biker-dude]

I opened gnomeburner to burn a cd image. I had FF running already. Anyway, I selected 'burn cd-image' from gnomeburners menu, but was told my cd-rw was not blank. I proceeded to close the window and select "blank cd-rw" from the menu, thus starting the blanking process. The blanking process froze about 1/2 way through. My hdd LED was lit constantly, and the cd LED was blinking in a monotonous manner. I tried to close gnomeburner, but had to close it forcefully. I then closed all other apps, and tried to shutdown. No luck, hdd LED still lit, cd LED still blinking. I then tried to safely shutdown by Alt+sysrq + r, but instead of letting my go through the safe steps (i.e. Alt+sysrq+s, etc.), it just shutdown my system. I had only been running feisty for a short time, maybe 45 minutes, and had only opened Firefox and a terminal window before starting up gnomeburner.

After starting up again, and opening gnomeburner, I found that the cd was already blanked, and gnomeburner let me burn my iso image without a hitch.

How much time did you wait at the "frozen" state?
My experience is that it really "freezes" the machine for some time
when branking a CD-RW and at the "fixating" fase of burning a data
CD. But it "unfreezes" when the process finishes.
