As for my case with pata_via, until this is fixed, is there any way to force it to use a higher UDMA? Is there a flag that can be passed in, for example, in /sys somewhere? hdparm fails to set a higher UDMA and I looked at sdparm but don't see anything in it to increase UDMA... -- 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
