I just connected the drive to my dual boot linux/winxp laptop. Under
winxp, my computer -> manage -> storage -> disk management, it's
showing the drive as Healthy Unknown Partition, which is correct since
winxp can't recognize ext3. So the drive is not dead.

There may be errors on the partition though. You could try looking for an ext2 DOS/Win tool.

Could it just be this version of the kernel?

Hi,

I'm running a vanilla 2.6.15 kernel and I'm having connection problems
with my LaCie BiggerDisk G935 Rev: 922 drive. These are the errors I'm
getting:

Connecting with USB gives these errors:

is the drive dead?

If I'm not mistaken, the sense codes translate to "Medium Error", "Data phase error". Looks like a hardware fault to me. You can get those SCSI hex codes translated by compiling scsi_mod with "Verbose SCSI error reporting" switched on, i.e. CONFIG_SCSI_CONSTANTS.

BTW, the BiggerDisk obviously reports a wrong last sector number when connected to USB (1960939009) as opposed to FireWire (1960939008). Seems to be another candidate for drivers/usb/storage/unusual_devs.h (which is why I am crossposting this to linux-usb-devel).
