 basicly the patch in kern/2423 will fix the main thrust behind bin/2303...
 
 the patch in kern/2423 fixes the problem as it wasn't the fault of
 cdcontrol but of the cdrom drive...  I'm not sure if the patch will
 compile under -current, but the patches are relative to -current... I'm
 running 960801-SNAP (my main server is also my developement machine) so I
 can't compile the -current kernel sources until I do an upgrade...  from
 the looks of it... cd.c hasn't changed enough so the patches should be a
 problem... 
 
 also.. right now the patch requires that you add "options CD_BCD_HACK" to
 the kernel for my modes to be incorperated...  then you need to edit
 scsiconf.c to add the option CD_Q_BCD_TRACKS to the quirk entry before the
 code will even run on a cdrom drive...  it also doesn't impact how my
 other 'normal' cdrom drive works...
 
 if you have any questions... just ask... and I'll give all the info you
 need...
