garbled/silent rips...

[eelboy]

hi all, i'm new to the list so apologies for any poor etiquette on my part.

i have a dell optiplex745 running a standard debian sarge installation.  the slimline CD is detected as: TSSTcorpCD-ROM TS-L162C, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive - it's SATA, and for compatibility reasons I have sata running in PATA mode.

Ripping CD's produces either silent WAV's (with parnaoia) or choppy files (paranoia disabled).  Does anyone know if the problem would likely be the drivers being used for this drive? or trying to rip in PATA mode from a SATA drive?

During the rip, I see all '++++++' in the progress bar (literally all) , along with this guy ":-P" so I don't think that's a good thing :)

any suggestions? hoping....
thanks!
edward

Hello,

You didn't mention which version of paranoia you're using (and which
kernel).  SATA cdroms have not been generally available until
recently, and there turned out to be a few kernel bugs w.r.t handing
them.  In addition, the cdparanoia 10 prerelease attempts to use the
most recent kernel features to talk to them.

hi Monty, cdparanoia III version 9.8 with kernel 2.6.8-3.  i'm in the process of attempting a kernel upgrade to 2.6.20.1 - a path that has proven to be frought with peril in it's own right :(

Agreed.  Let me know how that goes.  If we don't hear from you in a
week, we'll send out search and rescue parties.
