Subject: 40-wire/80-wire detection
Date: Thu, 12 Jul 2007 14:09:20 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <527770.57572.qm@web58107.mail.re3.yahoo.com> (raw)
Linux kernel: version 2.6.22.1
Chipset: VIA VT8363 + VT82C686A
Hard drives: Quantum Fireball LCT10 (UDMA66)
I'm having a problem with the 80-wire/40-wire cable detection in the
ata driver. Even when I configure the kernel with IDEDMA_IVB set, I
still get the 40-wire speed downgrade on hda.
Why did you guys put that 80-wire/40-wire cable detection in the ata
driver anyway? Since when is it your job to police me in making sure
I'm using the correct cable on my drives.
This is a pefect example of why I feel Linux isn't worth the trouble.
If it weren't free of cost, I wouldn't go near it. But then again, I
guess you get what you pay for so I shouldn't complain.
Regards,
- Craig
