If the error that he experienced is similar to the lockup reading that I
experienced. The system acts like it was frozen in time. Everything stops

keyboard is unreponsive.
This should not happen to a system when a bad CD, floppy or usb media
device is nounted on the system.
Nobody wants their system killed by corrupted media which is not part of
the core operating system.
I almost agree with you. I'd just leave out "which is not part of
the core operating system."
I thought the original message was a nicely put criticism. FCx has
a real problem which certain other OS do not have. It should be
fixed.
True enough. It's not a reason not to use Linux, though. It's a reason to
get the bug fixed.
Didn't say it was a reason not to use FCx.
No, actually my remarks are directed more to the OP than you. Sorry...
What did you say the Bugzilla number for this problem was?
I think the guy with the problem should be the one to make an
entry. I don't have any music CDs, so I can't really create
an entry with any useful data in it. It's so tacky, don't you
think, to create problem reports with gossip in them?
Sure.
To Jim Cornette and the original critic:
Could you please visit http://bugzilla.redhat.com/ and file a bug under
product Fedora Core, Version 4, component kernel (if there's not already
one there for this issue)?
Thanks for helping to make Fedora Core and Linux better rather than just
complaining.
Mike
