2.6.24 /VIA problem still not solved. It must surely be libata-related?

Short dmesg extract (these errors go on and on)

Used smxi this time, the install itself went error-free.

In the past, I had ata errors, too. I do NOT understand the background and/or the meaning of the error messages. But I could allways solve these problems by controling/changing the ide cables. Make sure they are pluged in really well and that the cable is not kinked. It seems to me, that this libata stuff gets more and more sensible to smallest hardware damages.

I had ata2.0 and ata3.1 errors. I do not understand the numbering, but maybe in the docs you may find information whether and how the numbers refere to ide channels and devices. To me it seems as if the numbers indicate ata_channel.subchannel:
Maybe those ata problems are NOT VIA related, but I do not know!

If I remeber well, you have a Western Digital disk. In past, there were WDhd_s with linux related problems. It could be helpfull to test this. Detach the other ide devices and try boot. Unfortunately we have no live cd with the new libata_via drivers, so you cannot test this with live cd until "nyx" comes out. Maybe you could test with a spare disc?

Thanks michaa. This is my main system so swapping drives will be quite a disruption but I'll try a test install/upgrade with a spare disk at some stage. Something has changed with 2.6.24 that my box doesn't like.

There are 2x HDD, one is western digital. The same errors seem to be for both drives. The HD's are on each primary (master) channels and the CDROM's are slaves. Grub is on the first disk and main sidux / on the second

Where do those scsi messages come from? Do you have a real scsi system?

dmesg on my system:
Code:
...
ata3.01: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2
ata3.01: BMDMA stat 0x4
ata3.01: cmd c8/00:08:df:0d:6f/00:00:00:00:00/f1 tag 0 dma 4096 in
         res 51/84:00:df:0d:6f/00:00:00:00:00/f1 Emask 0x10 (ATA bus error)
ata3.01: status: { DRDY ERR }
ata3.01: error: { ICRC ABRT }
ata3: soft resetting link
ata3.00: configured for UDMA/100
ata3.01: configured for UDMA/100
ata3: EH complete
...


I have those dmesg output, too. Only difference: At the end UDMA/100 works.

I know, all wroks with .23 kernels on your system. Nevertheless, while testing, try with your first hd only, detach other devices. Controll jumpers (master/lave; don't use "cable select") use different cables to exclude any possible demage.

And, maybe sounds stupid, but make sure you do not have dust bunnies in your cpu fan or around your power supply unit. This has been a reason for ata problems on my system!

No, all four IDE channels only

Box was recently stripped and cleaned out

To test without the western digital I'll have to do some grub mods first as that's where it is. Then put the box out of action, get it on the bench and start investigating. That won't happen today, it's in service!

I now have a similar dmesg tail also.

Using the .7 kernel. My new box had been working well for a few days:

Trouble began while copying some large files, moving some other things and surfing IW.
Locked up and began giving errors. Reboot failed the first couple of times.

Currently running, apparently OK. Running smartooltests at present.
So far no indication of problem. Just see those ata3.0 errors on boot, as follows:

Would appreciate knowing if there is actually a hardware problem or if it is software.

Currently running the .11 kernel on a Maxtor 40GB drive with no errors.
Will reconnect the WD160 to the net on Sat. and try the .11 kernel.
Is there a way to download a deb to install a new kernel, if not connected to the net?

regards,
Richard.

put the kernel debs onto a USB key or CDR from another machine and plug in the key then install the kernel debs

Tried to edit my first post here as I put an incomplete URL

I am unable to do that, the entire text has now been deleted and no edit will stick!

Is there a gremlin about?

EDIT: Fixed!

OK, I'll try that, I see the following debs:
kernel-2.6.24.2-slh-smp-8.zip
linux-headers-2.6.24-2.6.24.2.slh.11-common_2.6.24-10_i386.deb
linux-headers-2.6.24-2.6.24.2.slh.11-sidux-686_2.6.24-10_i386.deb
linux-image-2.6.24-2.6.24.2.slh.11-sidux-686_2.6.24-10_i386.deb

Thanks, I'll give that a shot before dragging cables about. Smile

Well if I start pulling my machine to bits it's out of action so I thought to try a recompile of vanilla 2.6.24.2 using "make oldconfig" and let it run while I went to the pub.

On my return I installed the awaiting debs. It booted to a command prompt only but:

Code:
dzz@mainsnake3:~$ uname -r
2.6.24.2dzz-custom


Then ran smxi for nvidia and successfully started X

Then "dpkg-reconfigure virtualbox"

and tested good my VM's

dmesg shows no significant errors and everything seems normal but no doubt there will be missing modules.

I am obviously now in sidux-unsupported land but had to do that and report the result which seems to prove that 2.6.24.2 itself is not the issue here, nor my machine's hardware.

I will also add that I'm no kernel expert and a simple custom compile is about my limit.

So I will leave others to draw any conclusion from my tests.

As I said before, I'm a persistent bugger and determined to run current sid/sidux by whatever means. But I would prefer to run a slh kernel.

EDIT:
Noticed that /dev mappings are to hdxx as before NOT sdxx as was forced with slh kernel. Don't understand what goes on there.

Icedove/Iceweasel works fine, Virtualbox ose works fine.
Gimp and digiKam starts fast and they show pictures very fast.

But there are no modules in siduxcc. It's not possible to show kernelmodules in siduxcc for any kernel.
I have a lot of crashes in OpenOffice calc if I use the enter key to rewrite a value in a cell. btw: That's not a sidux item, but an OpenOffice 2.4 problem.

HarzG, smxi kernel install now has the full automatic module install support working, including building madwifi/ndiswrapper if needed.

You don't use the newest libata patches slh is using, I guess.
