[Bug 131945] Bad recognition of DD by ata_piix
Public bug reported: Hi everyone! I have an ACER Aspire 9410. This computer has an ATA DD (i'm sure i've disassembled it) but when i try to install Ubuntu (any version even gusty TRIBE X) it is recognised as an SCSI sda... The install works fine and everything works fine after the install but when i shut down the computer the DD makes a very strange noise but not under windows. I've tried to force the use of the ide_generic driver but in this case DMA is absent and impossible to activate (hdparm -d1 /dev/hda) . I've search for an explanation and it appaers to be a bug in ata_piix something like an error during hardware probe.

I've looked at the bug report #131696 but there isn't any fix proposed.. is there any? maybe put break=top and modprobe -r libata would be helpful?? I don't know i just try... Thanks for your reply!

[Bug 84603] Re: Hard disk I/O randomly freezes when hald is running and optical drive is empty
If i do this trick my hard drive is also recognised as the old fashioned /dev/hdaX but DMA is off and it is impossible to turn it on! I would like to have the denomination /dev/hdaX because when the system recognise my disk as a SATA it make a weird noise when it turn off! That's why i would like to have it recognised as a ATA drive WITH the DMA!

I'm sorry but are you using Debian Etch or Ubuntu Edgy? My disk is a PATA but is actually recognized as SATA. I hope there is at least or debian or ubuntu which doesn(t freeze.

[Bug 53754] Re: ata_piix problem with Intel ICH7 chipset
Hi all i didn't try the echo 1 /sys/bus/scsi/devices/0:0:0:0/timeout but i tried to search why it was freezing and i saw somewhere (maybe is it stupid?) that it was due to the ata_piix driver which control both SATA and PATA. From this i thought that i could try to add a boot option like noata_piix. I thought that it wouldn't boot but it booted... Sadly it was still freezing. But i tried with a cd in the drive, i'm running for 20hours now and no freeze... What's your method to detect freeze you also use dmesg? I'm running ubuntu feisty beta with the generic kernel 2.6.20-12-generic and with Acer AWSMI (i think).

[Bug 53754] Re: ata_piix problem with Intel ICH7 chipset
I confirm that it still freezes for me too. A little bit less and not the first day but it still freezes. I also tried firmware upgrade and cd in the drive with same poor results François -- ata_piix problem with Intel ICH7 chipset https://launchpad.net/bugs/53754 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I also have a Acer Aspire 9412AWLMI and i tried much distros with all the same result (freeze...). Someone (witch i thank a lot!) at the fosdem at Brussels showed me this post. Since i putted a cd in the cd drive no more freeze. I'll try to upgrade firmware of the cd drive and i'll say you what'd the result. hoping this bug will be soon fixed... thanks -- ata_piix problem with Intel ICH7 chipset https://launchpad.net/bugs/53754 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
