I don't have any (major) problems with Redhat 8.0 and the Redhat
kernel 2.4.20-18.8, but then I have X24. My friend does not have
any problems with his T30 (Redhat 8.0 with stock 2.4.19 kernel).
The DVD in Ultrabay is /dev/hdc. I don't have any ide-scsi
parameters for my kernel, I think kudzu or something adds them
automatically if it regocnizes a CDROM burner during boot.
Which distribution and kernel version you have? Which part
number your DVD has?
My wife's T21 has XP, sometimes I have to reboot it in order to
watch DVDs (CDROMs work fine all the time).
