Comment 45 for bug 182996

Sorry, this bug still exist on a clean hardy installation:
 AMD 780G chipset
Linux max2 2.6.24-16-generic #1 SMP Thu Apr 10 12:47:45 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Ubuntu 2.6.24-16.30-generic

After burning a dvd I got a very busy system and the following in the log:
May 15 12:56:36 max2 -- MARK --
May 15 13:11:53 max2 kernel: [ 5277.893673] hdb: DMA timeout retry
May 15 13:11:59 max2 kernel: [ 5282.234025] hdb: status timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy }
May 15 13:11:59 max2 kernel: [ 5282.234031] ide: failed opcode was: unknown
May 15 13:12:03 max2 kernel: [ 5287.228826] hdb: status timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy }
May 15 13:12:03 max2 kernel: [ 5287.228833] ide: failed opcode was: unknown

eject simply does nothing
sudo hdparm -w /dev/hdc caused a complete freeze, no magic requests, no ping, nothing...
