Comment 10 for bug 117441

This bug is a bit perplexing. On my Darter with the appropriate driver "piix", as you guys using, I can burn CD's and DVD's without any soft lockups. I think it is related to the above bug and bug 84603

Bug 84603 is supposed to be fixed and released with Feisty SRU but I don't have a time table from Canonical.

Because I'm not experiencing the problem I'd like to look at a potential firmware problem. Can you both remove your CD-ROM drives and provide the firmware release (usually designated with FW). Also any other information on the drive will be helpful - usually the numbers underneath a bar code.

Thanks, Carl
