sata_sil with seagate st3120026as

[Stephen Atkins]

Hello.  I've been poking around in the sata_sil.c file because I saw a message
at one time about the Seagate drives and how some of them need to be in the
sil_blacklist.  Any way I've been trying to get this driver to work under the
2.6 kernel (it seems find in 2.4.26 but ivtv doesn't like that version).  Any
way this is the error I received from the kernel when I was trying to access the
drive.

ata1: DMA timeout 0x58 on port 0xE0851087
scsi0: Error on channel 0, id 0, lun 0, CDB: 0x2a 00 0b bd a8 a4 00 04 00 00
current sda: sense=70 3
ASC= c ASCQ= 2
Raw sense data: 0x70 0x00 0x03 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x06 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x0c
0x02
end_request: I/O error, dev sda, sector 191735972

A bit of info on my hardware:
MoBo: Gigabyte GA-7N400 Pro2 (Dual DDR400, intel8x0 sound, r8169 lan, sil3512A,
Gigaraid IDE, IDE nForce2)
HD: 6G regular IDE, 120G Seagate SATA ST3120026AS, DVDROM
Memory: 512M DDR 2100 (w 256M sticks) not useing dual channel
TV Cards: 1 PVR-250 model 980, 1 Leadtek winfast TV2000 XP Deluxe
Network: On board r8169 and wireless 802.11abg (used madwifi drivers)

Not sure what else you might need.  Just let me know if there is and I'll do my
best to supply it.

Most likely you need to update your BIOS, or boot with 'noapic', or boot 
with 'pci=noacpi', etc.
