I've tested multiple kernels (including -mm series) in the range of 2.6.19.7

Every NCQ enabled kernel I've tested showed ata errors in dmesg. So I came to
the conclusion that my system was faulty. I ran memtest86+ for a long time,
but no errors were found. After some fiddling with my HW I discovered that
the nforce chipset fan induced some kind of electro magnetic interference to
the southbridge, which could clearly be heard as a low frequency noise if I
plugged in my speakers to the onboard sound. After replacing the fan, my
system is stable again. Now running 2.6.21-rc3-mm2+rsdlv31 without errors.
Really strange problem he ;-)
Man, that's the strangest way to solve ATA command failures I've ever
heard of. Kudos to you for finding it out. :-)
