atapicam problem

[Benjamin Lutz]

Hello Thomas,

I'm having an issue with atapicam. Loading the kernel module doesn't 
create /dev/cd* as expected but seems to have a serious impact on system 
performance. Compiling it into the kernel causes the boot to hang after 
detecting acd0 and acd1 (although after reading the mailing list, this 
may not actually be a hang, but a slowdown, where I'd just have to let 
it sit 15 minutes - I haven't waited that long).

Looking through the freebsd-stable mailing list, it seems that this 
issue has come up before:

http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=freebsd-stable&m=114302548927632&w=2
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=freebsd-stable&m=114371352507049&w=2
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=freebsd-stable&m=114372945516655&w=2

This seems to be the exact same issue that I'm having. Since those 
threads are from March 2006, and I'm running FreeBSD-6.2-PRERELEASE, it 
appears that the problem has not yet been fixed, so I'd like to ask you 
to have another look at it. If you need more debugging data, I'll be 
happy to provide as much as I can, just tell me what you need.

Cheers
Benjamin
