Hi all,
Together with a couple of others I have been bitten by problems with the
Promise SATAII TX4 controller.
Common to all is that at some point the kernel log contains the "irq
<SOME NUMBER>: nobody cared!" error message, followed by a call/stack
trace. This is quickly followed up by a "Disabling IRQ #<SOME NUMBER>"
which effectively kills the SATA controller and access to the disks.
Although a somewhat unusual request, could I ask somebody to look at
this

developing thread in the Gentoo Forums. There's simply to much
information there to repost here.
In my case (posted under <rasmussen>) I temporarily seem to have gotten
around it by replacing a driver with another of a different brand.
However, this is not the case for others.
Any idea of what's going on? To me it looks like some interrupt isn't
cleared or something like that (but I'm just guessing).
Cheers,
Kim
