Look at the archive. sos posted a note that the changes made to
ata-queue required changes in atapicam. These have not been made at this
time, so if you back out the changes to ata-queue.c(1.22) and
ata-all.h(1.74) made last Saturday to issue a sense command
automatically when ATAPI command fail with valid status, it will work
again.
