Executive summary: 2.5.13 IS buggy. Explanation: some code now differs in the code path concerned, and ide_register_subdriver now only calls ide_dma_check for UDMA drives (previously all DMA drives), but ultimately ide_dma_check still ends up in ide_config_drive_speed, and that's still fuctionally the same as 2.4. My patch doesn't apply though, due to slight changes to types and macros, but it's not exactly a hard patch to port. Moreover, it's probably better to fix the problem more directly than to port my patch ;-)) Neil __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
