Does your cd drive work after this has happened?? does this error show
up in dmesg?

Correct. It just jumps from the Buffer I/O errors to booting
correctly.

The CDROM seems to be working fine, but it's much louder than normal.
I think I'm going to have GRUB default to *-3-686 for now, until (If)
I can get this solved. It's not the worst thing in the world, but it's
just loud enough to annoy me (I rip and use my CDROM pretty often, so
it's quite annoying).

yeah, all the references I found to that error point to problems with
cd, so I think that's a good idea. you might hit of the kernel team
and see if they have any insight.

It actually ended up just turning out to be the CD, I forgot that it
was in the drive and I think it was scratched up (Or something
similar) because I got the same error when I booted into *-3-*.
Sorry for the false alarm, I guess I just have a really bad memory.

Hi all,
I also have problem with recent upgrades, once I installed (yesterday)
the new 2.6.18-4-686 kernel I ran into system freezes, but it seemed
to make no difference if I returned to the previous 2.6.18-3-686.
At first I thought about ipw3945* packages, which gave me problems also
in the past, but after I uninstalled them some problems still remain:
gnome-power-manager does not display icon even if it's running and I
had to kill gnome-screensaver which was not responding.
I think the problem is inside some component which was upgraded with
the kernel, maybe hal or acpi.
Anyone has an idea?
Thanks
Giacomo
