Can you restore your machine to the original setup with 40c cable and report the content of /var/log/boot.msg and the result of 'hdparm -I /dev/hda'? That should confirm my diagnosis. This is fixed in the new libata stack. You can choose the new driver in yast's hardware menu. The new driver is named pata_amd. It would be great if you can test this and report how it works. Ah... also, when you connected the LITE-ON using 80c cable by itself, to which connector did you connect it? In transfer modes > UDMA33, you need to connect the device to the connector at the end of the cable in single device configuration. This is to eliminate signal reflecting from the end of cable interfere with the original signal. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
