k3b takes ages scanning CDs devices

["Paul Smith" <phhs80@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear All

k3b takes ages scanning CDs devices. My configuration is:

# /sbin/hdparm /dev/dvd

/dev/dvd:
IO_support   =  1 (32-bit)
 unmaskirq    =  1 (on)
using_dma    =  1 (on)
 keepsettings =  0 (off)
 readonly     =  0 (off)
 readahead    = 256 (on)
HDIO_GETGEO failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
#

and the recording speed is fine. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Paul
