** 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 Mar 3 10:30:23 hot-spring kernel: [ 1810.944000] ata2.00: limiting speed to PIO2 Mar 3 10:30:23 hot-spring kernel: [ 1810.944000] res 40/00:03:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/a0 Emask 0x4 (timeout) Mar 3 10:30:30 hot-spring kernel: [ 1817.948000] ata2: port is slow to respond, please be patient (Status 0xd0) Mar 3 10:30:53 hot-spring kernel: [ 1840.964000] ata2: soft resetting port Mar 3 10:30:54 hot-spring kernel: [ 1841.300000] ACPI Error (dsopcode-0481): Attempt to CreateField of length zero [20060707] Mar 3 10:30:54 hot-spring kernel: [ 1841.300000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.RATA] (Node df994770), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:30:54 hot-spring kernel: [ 1841.300000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.CHN1.DRV0._GTF] (Node df9948c4), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:30:54 hot-spring kernel: [ 1841.492000] ACPI Error (dsopcode-0481): Attempt to CreateField of length zero [20060707] Mar 3 10:30:54 hot-spring kernel: [ 1841.492000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.RATA] (Node df994770), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:30:54 hot-spring kernel: [ 1841.492000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.CHN1.DRV0._GTF] (Node df9948c4), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:30:54 hot-spring kernel: [ 1841.492000] ata2.00: configured for PIO2 Mar 3 10:30:54 hot-spring kernel: [ 1841.492000] ata2: EH complete Mar 3 10:32:20 hot-spring kernel: [ 1927.576000] ata2.00: limiting speed to PIO1 Mar 3 10:32:20 hot-spring kernel: [ 1927.576000] res 40/00:03:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/a0 Emask 0x4 (timeout) Mar 3 10:32:27 hot-spring kernel: [ 1934.584000] ata2: port is slow to respond, please be patient (Status 0xd0) Mar 3 10:32:50 hot-spring kernel: [ 1957.600000] ata2: soft resetting port Mar 3 10:32:50 hot-spring kernel: [ 1957.944000] ACPI Error (dsopcode-0481): Attempt to CreateField of length zero [20060707] Mar 3 10:32:50 hot-spring kernel: [ 1957.944000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.RATA] (Node df994770), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:32:50 hot-spring kernel: [ 1957.944000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.CHN1.DRV0._GTF] (Node df9948c4), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:32:50 hot-spring kernel: [ 1958.136000] ACPI Error (dsopcode-0481): Attempt to CreateField of length zero [20060707] Mar 3 10:32:50 hot-spring kernel: [ 1958.136000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.RATA] (Node df994770), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:32:50 hot-spring kernel: [ 1958.136000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.CHN1.DRV0._GTF] (Node df9948c4), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:32:50 hot-spring kernel: [ 1958.136000] ata2.00: configured for PIO1 Mar 3 10:32:50 hot-spring kernel: [ 1958.136000] ata2: EH complete Mar 3 10:34:52 hot-spring kernel: [ 2079.484000] ata2.00: limiting speed to PIO0 Mar 3 10:34:52 hot-spring kernel: [ 2079.484000] res 40/00:03:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/a0 Emask 0x4 (timeout) Mar 3 10:34:59 hot-spring kernel: [ 2086.488000] ata2: port is slow to respond, please be patient (Status 0xd0) Mar 3 10:35:22 hot-spring kernel: [ 2109.504000] ata2: soft resetting port Mar 3 10:35:22 hot-spring kernel: [ 2109.848000] ACPI Error (dsopcode-0481): Attempt to CreateField of length zero [20060707] Mar 3 10:35:22 hot-spring kernel: [ 2109.848000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.RATA] (Node df994770), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:35:22 hot-spring kernel: [ 2109.848000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.CHN1.DRV0._GTF] (Node df9948c4), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:35:22 hot-spring kernel: [ 2110.040000] ACPI Error (dsopcode-0481): Attempt to CreateField of length zero [20060707] Mar 3 10:35:22 hot-spring kernel: [ 2110.040000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.RATA] (Node df994770), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:35:22 hot-spring kernel: [ 2110.040000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.CHN1.DRV0._GTF] (Node df9948c4), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:35:22 hot-spring kernel: [ 2110.040000] ata2.00: configured for PIO0 Mar 3 10:35:22 hot-spring kernel: [ 2110.040000] ata2: EH complete
