This should have been fixed a while ago by jylefort when he set the
default device for ATAPI access to be the ATAPICAM device (as opposed to
the ATA device). Assuming you have not undone that change, and are
running the latest version of HAL, these panics should not be occurring.
Even still, you're right that these are not HAL bugs, but rather an
issue in the kernel. I use nautilus-cd-burner to burn CDs in GNOME, and
I have never had such a panic on 6-STABLE. n-c-b uses cdrecord, cdrao,
and dvd-utils under the covers to do the actual device work. Not sure
what k3b is using, but maybe it diddles something it shouldn't.

Beni, Robert, Ganbold, are you all in fact running the latest version of the
hal port and do you all have atapicam enabled in your kernel? If not, making
sure of both might help avoiding the problem.

I see. I know I have updated my system last Saturday (14th April 2007)
and <br>
I think I updated both hal and kdelibs ports. I have atapicam enabled
in kernel.<br>
Let me double check it this weekend and I will let you know.<br>
<br>
thanks,<br>

I think I have a problem with hal(d) and k3b (version 1.0 from ports) : my

<pre wrap="">Other people have reported kernel panics. It looks to me like k3b's device
probing and hald's device probing at the same time manages to tickle a bug in

I'm afraid a true kernel hacker will have to inconvenince themselves with
running k3b and hal in order to have this one fixed. FWIW, I haven't seen in
happening on 5.5.
