[Bug 178808] Re: (Gutsy) K3b won't burn - wodim error

[glepore70]

OK, I tried the fixes mentioned at:
http://linux-ata.org/faq.html#combined
1.  My bios (ASUS M2N4-SLI, v. 0909) didn't allow changing BIOS mode.
2.  Appending combined_mode=libata booted, but I had no mouse or keyboard (both USB)
3.  Appending combined_mode=ide worked!  It booted, mouse and keyboard worked, and I was able to burn CDs at full speed.  SUCCESS.

This entire bug cost me about 10 coasters; most of my frustration stems
from the fact that burning CDs at full speed worked for more than 2
years, then stopped.  Adding kernel parameters is not for the newbie,
the problem exists elsewhere and should be fixed elsewhere.  Adding the
kernel parameter should be viewed as a workaround, so the bug should
probably not be closed, just re-pointed to wodim or wherever the bug
actually lives.
