Now I've tried it and it worked worse :/  When I rebooted with the new
kernel (2.2.13) I was almost flooded off my console with these messages:

DC390: RETRY pid 69 (25), target 06-00

DC390: RETRY pid 105 (43), target 06-00


every second a bunch of those lines appeared. And I suppose that isn't a
feature :)  Can my plextor-cdrom possibly cause this? i.e. could it be
soon-to-come-broken?  I've had no problems with it before.
