I havent tried it yet with 2.4.18. So it might be a general problem.

I just do NOT care about not being able to read this CD. 
But I care a lot about, when a non-root-user is able to crash the kernel. 

If this happens with a copy protected CD it is probable that a well scratched CD has the same effect.

I have absolutely no problem with being not able to read this CD if changing your code will break US law.

and YES I understand your position knowing - now knowing you live in california - that you dont want to change the code.
I cc'ed you because you are the IDE maintainer of IDE in 2.4. 

If you dont care - fine. Whether somebody else takes care or I have to live with this situation.
