This is just to let folks know that the 2.6.21-rc3 kernel's pata_pdc2027x works w/o issues with a PDC20269 in an old PowerMac G3 of mine: pata_pdc2027x 0000:00:0e.0: version 0.8 pata_pdc2027x 0000:00:0e.0: PLL input clock 16000 kHz ata1: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xf10197c0 ctl 0xf1019fda bmdma 0xf1019000 irq 24 ata2: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xf10195c0 ctl 0xf1019dda bmdma 0xf1019008 irq 24 scsi1 : pata_pdc2027x ata1.00: ATA-5: IBM-DTLA-307030, TX4OA6AA, max UDMA/100 ata1.00: 60036480 sectors, multi 0: LBA ata1.00: configured for UDMA/100 scsi2 : pata_pdc2027x ATA: abnormal status 0x8 on port 0xf10195df scsi 1:0:0:0: Direct-Access ATA IBM-DTLA-307030 TX4O PQ: 0 ANSI: 5 SCSI device sdb: 60036480 512-byte hdwr sectors (30739 MB) sdb: Write Protect is off sdb: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sdb: write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA SCSI device sdb: 60036480 512-byte hdwr sectors (30739 MB) sdb: Write Protect is off sdb: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sdb: write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA sdb: sdb1 sdb2 sdb3 sdb4 < sdb5 sdb6 sdb7 > sd 1:0:0:0: Attached scsi disk sdb In particular, this confirms that Albert Lee's timing/tuning fixes, which were essential for making the IDE pdc202xx_new driver work on this machine, also work in pata_pdc2027x. /Mikael - 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
