Matt, by applying this patch your would save many _users_ of this device from big trouble ! Linux usually has a good track to include workarounds for buggy hard- & firmware for the benefit of it's users. Even the usb subsystem has quite some quirkses, which would not be necessary if vendors so

The update is there, somewhere. Contact Cypress directly if you need it. The patch will probably not go in. I've commented on this before -- the patch is fundamentally dangerous. Tho, this version was the best I had ever seen. Matt On Sun, Oct 27, 2002 at 01:11:29PM +0100, Christian Mahr wrot

Dear Matthe, dear all again on the "Argosy HF530" Hard disk enclosure. I did not find any firmware update for thies device neither at "argosy" not at cypress which seem to have bought scanlogic. What I found was a old patch from Peter Waechtler and Rene Engelhard which I adapted to 2.4.20-pre11.

You need the firmware update which (I'm told) is located on the ScanLogic web site. Matt On Thu, Oct 24, 2002 at 11:53:08PM +0200, Christian Mahr wrote: > > Hi David, Hi all, > > > I applied the patch usb-ehci-2.4.20-pre11.patch recommend by david to 2.4.20-pre11, >but not > with much luck: >

Hi David, Hi all, I applied the patch usb-ehci-2.4.20-pre11.patch recommend by david to 2.4.20-pre11, but not with much luck: I connect a "Argosy HD530 disc enclosure" with a standard 2.5 inch drive. Host is NEC-type After connecting the drive I observe 2 process to be in "D" and "DW" state:

Sorry David, a typo - my fault. the kernel was already 2.4.20-pre-11. I built it just for this purpose after the problem arose on a plane 2.4.19 (I knew you would suppose me to take the latest kernel) I am going to try the patch and will report. Thanks Christian David Brownell schrieb: >

Sorry I forgot to name the kernel2.4.19-pre11 and the USB port: "NEC corporation USB 2.0" In that case upgrade your kernel and try this patch: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/gregkh/usb/2.4/usb-ehci-2.4.20-pre11.patch It might very well solve your prob
