Konrad <htw6966@htw-dresden.de> mentioned recently on this list that the mcdx
driver does not properly update information when a disk is changed. For
example, workman doesn't get new information when a disc is changed. Here is
a patch I threw together that seems to fix this. It works for Konrad and for
myself, but I'm not sure that what I have done is the best way to do it. If
you try this patch, please let me know your results. Also if you have any
suggestions to make this patch better, let me know. This should work in 2.0
and 2.1 series kernels.
The second patch fixes a bug in pause. I posted it before and it's already in
the 2.1 series, but I thought I'd repost it in case someone running 2.0 missed
it the first time.
