Well recently I've been using libata since my my distribution offered it when they switched to 2.6.19( maybe? 18) in the initramfs image. I have a sis 5513 controller, which after a couple of days started acting up and coming up with the following error: sg_write: data in/out 30576/30576 bytes for SCSI command 0xbe--guessing data i$; program grip not setting count and/or reply_len properly printk: 319 messages suppressed. sg_write: data in/out 30576/30576 bytes for SCSI command 0xbe--guessing data $n; program grip not setting count and/or reply_len properly printk: 321 messages suppressed. sg_write: data in/out 16464/16464 bytes for SCSI command 0xbe--guessing data $n; program grip not setting count and/or reply_len properly printk: 323 messages suppressed. sg_write: data in/out 16464/16464 bytes for SCSI command 0xbe--guessing data $n; program grip not setting count and/or reply_len properly printk: 323 messages suppressed. sg_write: data in/out 16464/16464 bytes for SCSI command 0xbe--guessing data $n; program grip not setting count and/or reply_len properly printk: 324 messages suppressed. It's repeated over, and over; differing amounts of bytes. I'm unsure what invoked such errors, because it only started to happen a few days after use of the kernel. Which was 2.6.19-beyond kernel. I don't believe any additions made by the beyond kernel affected the libata system. Has this been fixed in the 2.6.20-rcXs? ~Jordan Neumeyer - To unsubscribe from this list: 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
