ATAPICAM FreeBSD 5.2.1

     Good day to all. I have been going crazy trying to get K3b to work. 
Everytime I attempt to burn a cd, the system freezes and reboots. I have been 
on the formus for a month now trying to find a soulution. Seems a lot of 
other people are having the same issue, and all theses guys are pointing to 
atapicam.  I reinstalled 4.10 for testing  and k3b works perfectly. Is 
atapicam really the problem as I suspect? If so, will this be fixed prior to 
5.3 release. Apologize in advance if this is a silly question. 
Thanks for your assistance, please let me know if you need additional info.
