Hi Darren, I've tried simply hacking the PCI ID into the table in ahci.c with the following lack of effect: [ 1.626120] ahci 0000:00:1f.2: version 3.0 [ 1.626147] ahci 0000:00:1f.2: PCI INT B -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19 [ 1.626181] ahci 0000:00:1f.2: PCI INT B disabled [ 1.626194] ahci: probe of 0000:00:1f.2 failed with error -22 It sounds like you got a bit further. I can't find exactly what patch from Matthew you're talking about. Can you post a pointer? What does it do other than adjust the PCI ID? Phil. _______________________________________________ Debian-eeepc-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-eeepc-devel
