All, I apologize if this has been discussed - but I haven't been able to find exactly what I am looking for in the discussions the last few weeks... I am running Linux 2.6.23.1 and have a 7042 SATA driver running (that seems to run very well) - it has the fixes talked about between Jeff & Olaf (mv_sg_fill changes).... The problem comes ONLY when I am doing large file operations (e.g.: just copying a file) to/from the SATA drives behind the subject line 7042....it just hangs after about 10-15 seconds into the copy... How large a file causes the hang - you ask - well, somewhere between 100Meg & 500Meg... In all other respects - this driver seems to be working... Is there a known problem - or do I need to describe in more detail? Thanks in advance for any / all ideas / questions /...etc Tom Morrison Principal S/W Engineer Empirix, Inc (www.empirix.com) tmorrison@xxxxxxxxxxx (781) 266 - 3567 - 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
