RE: RE: Failed resuming IDE from S3 on Abit NF7 (nForce2)

[Andreas Saur <saur@acmelabs.de>]

    Dear Luming,

the bug you are refering to, seems pretty much the same bug like I do 
have here. But I've got two questions. Could you please help me? And I 
do asume, that this patch isn't in the resent kernel yet, isn't it?

1) If I want to adopt your patch, I should use the values from my 
acpidump, but I can't find anything reasonable. What should my values 
look like? (see here: 
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=7762&action=view )

2) How do I ensure, that this native IDE driver is really used? Do I 
have to uncheck all non-native IDE drivers in the kernel config? (In my 
case it's the amd71xx, I guess)

Please excuse the silly questions, but I am pretty new to game of kernel 
configuration and compilation, but steady learning :-)

Thank you very much.
