I come back, with a new firmware. I have two SATA hard disks. The first one is the original one, and I had no freeze with it. The second one, the WD Velociraptor, was added after. When I got the freezes, I swapped the two cables, but it changed nothing. Concretely, the drive stops between 1 and 2 mn each hour, making the system unusable until it wakes up. Only the mouse and processes doing no disk access work. Sometimes I have no freeze at all during a long time. For the SMART utility, there is no problem at all on the disk. I noticed that running Firefox help having the freezes. So I suspected the kernel part of the nouveau driver. But I use the NVIDIA blob since a few days, and I got the freezes too. They are just shorter (?) Then I found on the web someone that created a bootable CD with Windows 98 that updates the firwares of my model (WD1500HLFS). On the web page, some comments of a guy that describes the same problem as mine telling that the update fixed it! So... Now, let's see if I will continue having freezes... -- Benoît Minisini ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ vRanger cuts backup time in half-while increasing security.
