** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: linux-image-generic
+ 
+ [still happening with 2.6.20-14 although less often than it used to]
  
  [up-to-date feisty... the problem was present with edgy as well,
  which prompted me to upgrade]
  [hardware: Asus F3JC (notebook)]
  
  
  Problems with ata2 seem strongly correlated with system freeze
  (hard to trace because of the complete freeze).
  
  The symptoms are generally:
  1- freeze on X
  2- if quick enough, I can switch to a console (Ctrl + F*)
  3- trying to log on the console prompts error messages like
  "ata2: speed down requests"
  "Error sending Cmd #07"
  "Write error on swap device", etc...
  The systems never get to log me in
  4- trying to access the computer remotely is unsuccessful (the machine does
  not answer anymore)
  5- only a hard reboot is possible
  
  /var/log/messages contains the following during normal operations
