Hi Christopher It appears that the BIOS you are pointing me to for v. 1.04 is 3002 for a EITX-3002 board. My board is the M910 ( http://www.viaembedded.com/en/products/boards/1810/1/EPIA-M910.html ), which still shows latest bios as 1.02. What makes you think that the 1.04 BIOS is compatible with

Workaround for others with similar problems is to append: libata.force=80c to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT= between the double quotes. If there are other parameters, separate with a space sudo update-grub sudo reboot This will not get you SATA speeds, but at least you get UDMA/133 (instead of UDMA

Public bug reported: I have an EPIA M910 (VX900 chipset) board with the latest BIOS (BIOS 1.01 2012/02/17 I2100101.zip). I have a Seagate SATA ST32000542AS drive installed and a SATA PIONEER BDR-207D Blu-Ray burner installed for backups. I have no IDE devices (the IDE slots on the mobo are empty).

I confirm this problem on Dell XPS with a RTL8168B/8111B card in 64-bit Natty Narwhal (11.04). After some network activity (e.g. copying a large file), it will lock up the machine with only a flashing CAPS lock light and no other activity requiring a hard reset by pressing and holding the power but
