[Bug 38937] Kernel being noisy at boottime

[mlind]

Public bug reported:

Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:

With every Dapper kernel, I've seen brief dmesg output like

hdc: drive_cmd: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
[4294702.815000] hdc: drive_cmd: error=0x04 { AbortedCommand }
[4294702.815000] ide: failed opcode was: 0xec
[4294702.847000] hdd: drive_cmd: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
[4294702.847000] hdd: drive_cmd: error=0x04 { AbortedCommand }
[4294702.847000] ide: failed opcode was: 0xec
[4294703.032000] hdc: drive_cmd: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
[4294703.032000] hdc: drive_cmd: error=0x04 { AbortedCommand }
[4294703.032000] ide: failed opcode was: 0xec
[4294703.063000] hdd: drive_cmd: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
[4294703.063000] hdd: drive_cmd: error=0x04 { AbortedCommand }
[4294703.063000] ide: failed opcode was: 0xec


So this currently applies on 2.6.15-20-k7 kernel.

hdc == my LG DVD burner

Its firmware should be up-to-date.
