RE: Cannot enable DMA on SATA drive (SCSI-libsata, VIA SATA)

Hi Jeff,

Sorry for not writing you soon.

Haruo> Combined mode can be set up by the SATA controller of ESB of Intel tip.
Haruo> This mode is the mode which can use SATA and PATA simultaneously.
Haruo> In ata_piix driver, when combined mode is specified, it does not work.

Jeff> May I request, again, information on this. In the current kernel you
Jeff> are the only one reporting this problem.
Jeff> Does 2.6.9-rc1-bk work for you?

2.6.9-rc1-bk7 has no problem. It is worked.
But, 2.4.28-pre2-bk1 is not work.
As 2.4.28-pre2-bk1, I created the patch for solving this problem.
Is it right? The patch is as follows.
