similar to: ATA driver not as good in 4.8 as 4.5?

I have a couple of DVD drives (one drive, one burner) that used to play DVDs quite fine from 5.3 to somewhere in the 6.x branch. Nowadays I have to send them to PIO4 to play DVDs, because they'll just throw DMA not aligned errors around in UDMA33 or WDMA2 mode. Should someone be interested in this I'm willing to supply all necessary information, such as the exact drives, firmware

Dear List, This is my second post since I did not receive any answers the first time. I have P4P800-VM motherboard with serial ata controlers (ICH5) and serial ata discs. I managed to install FreeBSD 4.9-STABLE on this box when setting the IDE controller in legacy mode. Everything works normal except when booting, the drives are set into UDMA33 mode: atapci0: <Intel ICH5 SATA150

hi, latest changes in dev/ata broke this, on older -stable ... ata0-master: pio=PIO4 wdma=UNSUPPORTED udma=UNSUPPORTED cable=40 wire ad0: success setting PIO4 on National chip ad0: 977MB <SanDisk SDCFB-1024 Rev 0.00> at ata0-master PIO4 on latest -stable: ata0-master: pio=PIO4 wdma=WDMA2 udma=UNSUPPORTED cable=40 wire and no disk. cheers, danny

On reboot, one out of 10 times, reboot (from hardware initialization) stops. Referring to this portion of the dmesg -v output, of a successful boot, where i have marked ">>>HERE<<<" is where the boot freezes on an unsuccessful boot. This is a constnat problem, on 6.2 as well as 6.3 unchanged. ata0-master: pio=PIO4 wdma=WDMA2 udma=UDMA33 cable=40 wire acd0: setting

Hi, after one month with gmirror and gjournal running on a 7.0-RELEASE #p2 amd64 (built from latest CVS source), the box hung a couple of times when on high disk load. Finally, while building some port it won't boot for no reason obvious to me. This is what I get with kernel.geom.mirror.debug=2: ata2-master: pio=PIO4 wdma=WDMA2 udma=UDMA133 cable=40 wire ad4: 476940MB <SAMSUNG HD501LJ

Hello, I didn't recieve a response on freebsd-mobile, so I'm trying here. I'm trying to install FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE or 5.0-RELEASE onto my Dell Inspirion 8100. I'mjust doing a Standard installation and when FDisk loads I get: Disk name: ad0 DISK Geometry: 88 cyls/255 heads/63 sectors = 1413720 sectors (690MB) So I go and manually change the drive geometry with the G option and

Hi there. OS version: FreeBSD 4.7-Stable FreeBSD #3 I just added a disk to my box and after playing with fdisk and disklabel with this configuration: fdisk: **************************************************************** g c16383 h16 s63 p 1 165 0 39102336 **************************************************************** disklabel

Hello, I've got a (P)ATA disk in a special frame. The disk itself supports UDMA-100 (and has an 80-ribbon cable), but the frame isn't compatible with that. By default, FreeBSD negotiates UDMA-100, and the console starts to fill with ICRC errors. In the past, I used a patch to ata-all.c that enabled the following entry in loader.conf to force the disk to UDMA-33, so it worked fine:

After compiling the kernel 4.9RC1 dmesg gives the following error lpt0: Interrupt-driven port ppi0: <Parallel I/O> on ppbus0 ed1: <Realtek Plug & Play Ethernet Card> at port 0x220-0x23f irq 5 on isa0 ed1: address 52:54:40:28:83:9a, type NE2000 (16 bit) ad0: 4112MB <WDC AC24300L> [8912/15/63] at ata0-master WDMA2 Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ad0s1a module_register: module

Just thought I'd pass along that I have successfully installed FreeBSD 7.0 into a Xen 3.1 HVM. ?This one went as smooth as I expected, considering my experience with 6.3. ?Haven't done any benchmarking or stress testing or port installs or anything. ?But so far it's working nicely. Here's all the info. ?If you'd like to see anything else, let me know. Host hardware: ?

Is there anyone out there who has installed FreeBSD on the above Sony laptop ? Both ''cat filename > /dev/dsp0.0'' or ''vlc cdda:///dev/acd0@1 are OK. If I run ''cdcontrol -f /dev/acd0 play'', there is no sound. But the output of ''cdcontrol -f /dev/acd0 status audio'' is alright. (same behaviour for cd0 instead of acd0) And the output

Hi, I am running FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE-p7 and cannot build any Mozilla version from ports. The build exits for all versions at the same point. A source file called jsdtoa.c. Thanks..

Hi all, I have been tracking -STABLE on one of my home machines for a little while, now and noticed something the other day. I was given this system, and I have only run FreeBSD-STABLE on it. The motherboard is a Supermicro370SWD with an Intel 810 "Whitney" chipset (82810DC100 GMCH + 82801AA ICH). The docs say that there is support for UDMA66, but FreeBSD reports that the drive is

I have just aquired a few systems based around ASUS P4P8x motherboard with Intel 865P chipset. Attempt to install both 5.1-R and 4.8-20030810 snap have failed. I've turned off every onboard device in the BIOS that is possible. During the install of 5.1 the system hangs at acpi_cpu0: throttling enabled: 8 steps (100% to 12.5%), currently 100%. ad4: DMA limited to UDMA33, non ATA66 cable or

Howdy. I apologize for vagueness of this report but I am not immediately sure how to proceed with this or what details will be relevant. I look after a community server which has been running just fine for the last 6 months or so with no disk issues at all. The box has an all in one Shuttle motherboard which uses the VIA 8233 ATA133 disk controller according to what I see from dmesg. The

These are new boxes. http://www.supermicro.com/products/system/1U/5015/SYS-5015B-MT.cfm core 2 Q6600 CPU 8Gb 667 RAM Boxes were memtested from Fri-Mon okay. 6.3-RELEASE (amd64) installs fine. Build cycle okay. Running (no load) for a week or so. However, when I try to configure gmirror they hang on boot. After some fiddling it appears issuing #kldload geom_mirror hangs the boxes very hard.

Hi, I have a server (Dell PowerEdge SC1435, ServerWorks HT1000) on which I'd like to try installing FreeBSD. I've already failed to make 7.0 work on this box and was wondering if you have information about the behavior of the upcoming 7.1 on this hardware. I've been following the "HT1000 chipset errata saga" thread, and the commits by sos@ to CVS (around Jan 2008), but have
