Audio CD ripping causes system lockup

Fri Oct 14 09:16:43 UTC 2005

Hi,

The kernel is kernel-2.6.13-1.1526_FC4.
I ripped one CD successfully using grip, but a second one
caused the system to lock up.
I figured out that switching off dma for the CD-ROM drive solves
the problem. Of course system load is the affected negatively.
I never had this problem with FC3 and before.
Does anyone experience similar problems?
The drive is a Plextor PX716A.
