I was having the same problems that David did.

In fact, I noticed that after I received the message "dropping to single
frame dma", everything that the CD drive ripped from that point on was just
digital silence.

With the patch sent by Jens, things seem to work well (just tried
extracting something that *did* generate the "single frame dma" message and
tried ripping another track and this latter track is, happily, not digital
silence).

I'm using an almost plain vanilla 2.6.7 kernel here (with a one-liner patch
to the USB hub controller).

Thanks Jens. I hope that this is included in the final 2.6.8.


Thanks again, Rogério.
