Any other ideas? We seem to have one report, from one user, with one configuration, on one controller, using one firmware set. That to me isn't meaningful evidence of anything that needs a workaround, beyond maybe doing what old IDE does and if a setxfer times out continuing in hope. (We should of course then re-read the identify pages and check the mode in use) Alan -- 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
