Hi - I just compiled 2.6.9 for a T42 but can't get the DVD/CD drive to
read a DVD+RW disc (bad fs type it says).  A supplied Mandrake 10.1
kernel did read this disc fine, but for my own kernel, I can't determine
what's required.  I even patched the kernel with the DVD+RW patch here;

but this doesn't work either.

Does anyone know?  Thanks, Nick.
