Mr Garzik. Hello. I know Nvidia chipset (at least 2050 and 2200) for sata is ,,,"somewhat problematic". Is there a linux status list for speciffic types of nvidia chipsets ? What you describe in the sata status web page isn't detailed enough. i keep on getting write errors. I am using AMD Opetron 248 , my motheboard is SuperMicro H8DCE. thank you -- Raz - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
