Hash: SHA1
Package: linux-image-2.6.24-1-amd64
Version: 2.6.24-2
Severity: important
As in the 2.6.23 debian's kernels, the PATA controller in the SantaRosa
chipset (8086:2850) is non managed by the ata_piix kernel driver.
On the Lenovo Thinkpad R61 (but I know for sure there are other Notebook
suffering of the same problem), the DVD-Writer cannot work with the old piix
modules. If I load the piix module the dvd drive is recognized but it's
unusable. The kernel log gets filled with "hda: set_drive_speed_status:
status=0x51" errors.
It would be better if the user has the option to choose the module to load,
as with the vanilla kernel.
Please drop the drivers-ata-ata_piix-postpone-pata.patch.bz2 patch from the
Debian Kernel; it's anachronistic.
