Comment 14 for bug 117441

Strangely, I'm suddenly having trouble reproducing the problem. Last night I was even able to watch a DVD without any problem. I've tested putting a data DVD, a blank DVD-R, and a video DVD (snowboarding movie), into the drive, and I can't reproduce the problem the past few days. Strange, I wonder if this could somehow be related to the one DVD movie that was causing the problem? It was Mel Gibson's Apolypto (it was awful, actually offensive, he's a sicko), but it made the hald softlockup happen 10 minutes in, and after I removed the disc. I don't have the disc anymore, it was a rental, but I'll keep testing and trying and see what I can figure out. Sorry for the delay in my response.

Thanks again Carl,
