Hi folks,

If I insert an audio CD in my sata drive to play it via grip, then
it fails. Grip does not even show the list of audio tracks, nor does
it play the CD. Instead there is a kernel message saying

The same CDs work fine with an USB CD drive attached to the same
PC, so this might be a sata driver issue. (BTW, stopping hal doesn't
make a difference. Data CDs work fine.)

Any idea what goes wrong here? Does grip violate the SCSI protocol
here? Is there something I could try to help to track this down?

hmmmm, I used to see something similar on ICH7 but it went away.

Can you try various strategies associated with interrupts (trying to determine the cause of the timeouts), such as booting with "noapic", "acpi=off", and/or pci=biosirq.
