1 of 2 CDROM freezes

Hi,
I have got two CDROM drives on my PC (99 make, P2, 512MB, dualboot- win2k/fedora core1). CDROM1 (read/write) gets recognized but CDROM (read only) just hangs on being accessed.


ATAPI CD-ROM DRIVE 40X MAXIMUM (hangs!)
Samsung CD-R/RW SW-224B.       (ok!)

One gets recognized as SCSI drive (samsung, about 2 years old) and is operational.The other drive gets recignized as IDE (ATAPI, about 5 years old). Anything I try simply does not work. The system just hangs and I need to restart. Even saying "eject cdrom" hangs the system.

When I boot with GNOME, it just hangs in the startup screen (on the CDROM icon). KDE allowed me to get in and check out the drives from the shell. I am lost as to what needs to be done next. Any help would be great guys! Thanks!

from dmesg:
hdb: ATAPI CD-ROM DRIVE 40X MAXIMUM, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
blk: queuec040cfc0, I/O limit 4095Mb (mask 0Xffffffff)
hdb: Disabling (U)DMA for ATAPI CD-ROM DRIVE.

from /etc/fstab:
/dev/cdrom     /mnt/cdrom      udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/cdrom1    /mnt/cdrom1     udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0


from /etc/sysconfig/hwconf: class: CDROM bus: IDE detached: 0 device: hdb driver: ignore desc: "ATAPI CD-ROM DRIVE 40X MAXIMUM" - class: CDROM bus: SCSI detached: 0 device: scd0 driver: ignore desc: "Samsung CD-R/RW SW-224B" host: 0 id: 0 channel: 0 lun: 0 generic: sg0

Thanks!
amar
