This continues to be a problem in the 9.10 release.  I find the easiest
solution for myself is to disable ACPI since this is an always-on media
center.  Any thoughts on whether the ATA command passthrough hiccup is
specific to this model of hard drive enclosure, or potentially a more
widespread problem?  If so, this could be causing subtle performance
problems with firewire drives.

Perhaps we can request that the ieee1394 driver be patched to avoid the
long block associated with this error, but also pm-utils could try to
detect and avoid failed calls to hdparm... (the driver blockage may be
unavoidable?)
