Hi there, libata.noacpi=1 seems to have no side-effects... the only kernel switch that had a side effect was libata.force=norst which prevents soft and hard link resettings. If you have that switch on, when this bug comes up, there is a system lock down (because obviously the kernel prevented the soft & hard resetting.) Other switches had no effect, and I gave up trying.
I am furious about AMD SB700... but M3A78-EM is a good board. I think your notebook uses Intel chipset, and it's funny that it's also occurring with Seagate. I may replace the SAMSUNG drive first, we see how it goes (I need a larger one anyway). -- ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x807f SErr 0x0 action 0x6 frozen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285892 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
