I read the info at the link and am confused. It seems long on anecdotal 
evidence, short on any reasonable explanation. LG saying that they don't test 
on Linux and Mandrake saying don't use LG drives doesn't explain what is 
causing the problem. Assuming that it is a valid problem, how can any action 
be taken or any determination made about Fedora until some facts are known? 
More anecdotes aren't useful.
