It would be useful if you could change the #undef in these lines: 53 #undef ATA_DEBUG /* debugging output */ 54 #undef ATA_VERBOSE_DEBUG /* yet more debugging output */ in include/linux/libata.h to #define and rebuild and try it then, that will spew out a bunch more output and I can see if any reasonable looking values are showing up at all. I was capturing this output the crude way, booting with vga=6 to get a smaller font and taking a picture of the screen :-) Also, maybe post the lspci -v output from the SATA controller.. If that doesn't provide any insight, maybe the docs Jeff has provide the answer for whether or not the MCP5x/MCP61 controllers have the same interface as the CK804/MCP04.. -- Robert Hancock Saskatoon, SK, Canada To email, remove "nospam" from hancockr@nospamshaw.ca Home Page: http://www.roberthancock.com/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
