** Description changed: I believe there is a problem with ALi M5229 chipset. I'm using Karmic, however the same error was present in Jaunty. Well, as the title indicates my notebook hp nc4010 is stuck in udma2, and obviously every operation involving HDD (Seagate ST9808211A) is very slooooow. I tried switching to udma5 (that's the fastest mode this disk can work in), but all I get is errors: $ sudo hdparm -d1 -X69 /dev/sda /dev/sda: - setting using_dma to 1 (on) - HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device - setting xfermode to 69 (UltraDMA mode5) - HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(setxfermode) failed: Input/output error - HDIO_GET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device + setting using_dma to 1 (on) + HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device + setting xfermode to 69 (UltraDMA mode5) + HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(setxfermode) failed: Input/output error + HDIO_GET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device Read timings: sudo hdparm -tT /dev/sda /dev/sda: - Timing cached reads: 214 MB in 2.00 seconds = 106.87 MB/sec - Timing buffered disk reads: 10 MB in 3.46 seconds = 2.89 MB/sec + Timing cached reads: 214 MB in 2.00 seconds = 106.87 MB/sec + Timing buffered disk reads: 10 MB in 3.46 seconds = 2.89 MB/sec Here's my hdparm -I output: Code: /dev/sda: ATA device, with non-removable media - Model Number: ST9808211A - Serial Number: 3LG0KPZ0 - Firmware Revision: 3.00 + Model Number: ST9808211A + Serial Number: 3LG0KPZ0 + Firmware Revision: 3.00 Standards: - Used: ATA/ATAPI-6 T13 1410D revision 2 - Supported: 6 5 4 + Used: ATA/ATAPI-6 T13 1410D revision 2 + Supported: 6 5 4 Configuration: - Logical max current - cylinders 16383 17475 - heads 16 15 - sectors/track 63 63 - -- - CHS current addressable sectors: 16513875 - LBA user addressable sectors: 156301488 - device size with M = 1024*1024: 76319 MBytes - device size with M = 1000*1000: 80026 MBytes (80 GB) + Logical max current + cylinders 16383 17475 + heads 16 15 + sectors/track 63 63 + -- + CHS current addressable sectors: 16513875 + LBA user addressable sectors: 156301488 + device size with M = 1024*1024: 76319 MBytes + device size with M = 1000*1000: 80026 MBytes (80 GB) Capabilities: - LBA, IORDY(can be disabled) - Standby timer values: spec'd by Standard, no device specific minimum - R/W multiple sector transfer: Max = 16 Current = 16 - Advanced power management level: 128 - Recommended acoustic management value: 254, current value: 0 - DMA: mdma0 mdma1 mdma2 udma0 udma1 *udma2 udma3 udma4 udma5 - Cycle time: min=120ns recommended=120ns - PIO: pio0 pio1 pio2 pio3 pio4 - Cycle time: no flow control=240ns IORDY flow control=120ns + LBA, IORDY(can be disabled) + Standby timer values: spec'd by Standard, no device specific minimum + R/W multiple sector transfer: Max = 16 Current = 16 + Advanced power management level: 128 + Recommended acoustic management value: 254, current value: 0 + DMA: mdma0 mdma1 mdma2 udma0 udma1 *udma2 udma3 udma4 udma5 + Cycle time: min=120ns recommended=120ns + PIO: pio0 pio1 pio2 pio3 pio4 + Cycle time: no flow control=240ns IORDY flow control=120ns Commands/features: - Enabled Supported: - * SMART feature set - Security Mode feature set - * Power Management feature set - * Write cache - * Look-ahead - * Host Protected Area feature set - * WRITE_BUFFER command - * READ_BUFFER command - * DOWNLOAD_MICROCODE - * Advanced Power Management feature set - SET_MAX security extension - Device Configuration Overlay feature set - * Mandatory FLUSH_CACHE - * SMART error logging - * SMART self-test - * IDLE_IMMEDIATE with UNLOAD - Security: - Master password revision code = 65534 - supported - not enabled - not locked - frozen - not expired: security count - not supported: enhanced erase + Enabled Supported: + * SMART feature set + Security Mode feature set + * Power Management feature set + * Write cache + * Look-ahead + * Host Protected Area feature set + * WRITE_BUFFER command + * READ_BUFFER command + * DOWNLOAD_MICROCODE + * Advanced Power Management feature set + SET_MAX security extension + Device Configuration Overlay feature set + * Mandatory FLUSH_CACHE + * SMART error logging + * SMART self-test + * IDLE_IMMEDIATE with UNLOAD + Security: + Master password revision code = 65534 + supported + not enabled + not locked + frozen + not expired: security count + not supported: enhanced erase HW reset results: - CBLID- above Vih - Device num = 0 + CBLID- above Vih + Device num = 0 Checksum: correct And my lspci output: 00:00.0 Host bridge: ATI Technologies Inc RS200/RS200M AGP Bridge [IGP 340M] (rev 02) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: ATI Technologies Inc PCI Bridge [IGP 340M] 00:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: ALi Corporation M5451 PCI AC-Link Controller Audio Device (rev 02) 00:07.0 ISA bridge: ALi Corporation M1533/M1535/M1543 PCI to ISA Bridge [Aladdin IV/V/V+] 00:08.0 Modem: ALi Corporation M5457 AC'97 Modem Controller 00:09.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG [Calexico2] Network Connection (rev 05) 00:0b.0 CardBus bridge: O2 Micro, Inc.
