[opensuse] openSUSE 10.3 not detecting SATA HD
When I boot up the openSUSE 10.3 DVD it takes about 30 seconds or more to load the sata_sis driver. So I'm wondering if that's broke. I've tried acpi=off, which didn't work. I've tried turning off ACPI in bios and acpi=off which didn't work. I tried the Kernel Safe Settings, which didn't work. I tried brokenmodules=sata_sis, which didn't work. I have two HD's. The primary one is PATA which is where I install the OS. The secondary HD is a SATA which I store /home. As I write this I'm on openSUSE 10.2 and all my hardware is working fine. What would change in 10.3 that would make SATA all of a sudden non responsive?

I got same experience. I've 2 SATA harddisks which working fine with OpenSUSE 10.2 but it can't be detected on OpenSUSE 10.3. I used 1 KDE CD (openSUSE-10.3-GM-KDE-i386). Is there any driver which didn't load or didn't included in 1 KDE CD or is there any change with SATA driver ? -- Masim "Vavai" Sugianto http://www.vavai.com http://www.vavai.com/blog/index.php http://toko.vavai.biz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I've trying with another computer with SATA harddisk and OpenSUSE 10.3 installed very well. It looks like that sata_sis driver has broken, and the problem occured with this driver only.

Vavai That's what I figured. If this was Windows I would just download a driver

You would think the kernel developers would find an easier way so us simple users could easily upgrade or replace broken drivers. But noOoo!

Not always the case. If the vendor or MS do not release a driver for your hardware, (think Vista about 6 or 7 months ago) then you are S.O.L. until one gets released.

Adding additional modules to kernel to support your hardware is not that difficult. If you were able to follow instruction on how to find registry settings and tweak dword's in windows, then you should be fine with kernel moldules. plus, it's much more fun! :-) Check some posts online, google ng's, there are many really handy HOWTO's on kernel compiling. -- cheers, dg <a href="http://opensuse.org"><img style="border: 0px solid ; width: 80px; height: 15px;" alt="openSUSE.org" title="openSUSE.org" src="http://files.opensuse.org/opensuse/en/6/6e/Suselinux-green.png" /></a> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

You would think the hardware manufacturers might release suitable information or source code so that Open Source systems developers might be able to make them work with free software. And that those using Open Source systems might figure out where it is that the problem is coming from. But noOoo!

I have the same problem. Foxconn motherboard (SiS), first hard drive IDE, second hard drive SATA.
