uname -r is: 2.6.35-15-generic Whenever i get back to the official Ubuntu kernel, i get back to the same (too old i must say) issues. 2010/11/30 startling <mark.starl...@gmail.com> > I have the same error with Ubuntu 10.04 on my brand new laptop: > > [ 86.983162] ata1.00: failed command: READ FPDMA QUEUED > [ 86.983168] ata1.00: cmd 60/20:00:e0:63:87/00:00:18:00:00/40 tag 0 ncq > 16384 in > [ 86.983169] res 41/40:00:ec:63:87/00:00:18:00:00/40 Emask 0x409 > (media error) <F> > [ 86.983172] ata1.00: status: { DRDY ERR } > [ 86.983175] ata1.00: error: { UNC } > [ 87.002792] ata1.00: configured for UDMA/133 > [ 87.002805] ata1: EH complete > [ 87.796141] pwrdown, 0x6(BIT6)=71 > [ 88.981841] ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x2 SErr 0x0 action 0x0 > [ 88.981845] ata1.00: irq_stat 0x40000008 > [ 88.981849] ata1.00: failed command: READ FPDMA QUEUED > [ 88.981855] ata1.00: cmd 60/20:08:e0:63:87/00:00:18:00:00/40 tag 1 ncq > 16384 in > [ 88.981856] res 41/40:00:ec:63:87/00:00:18:00:00/40 Emask 0x409 > (media error) <F> > [ 88.981859] ata1.00: status: { DRDY ERR } > [ 88.981862] ata1.00: error: { UNC } > [ 89.001502] ata1.00: configured for UDMA/133 > [ 89.001514] ata1: EH complete > [ 89.796094] pwrdown, 0x6(BIT6)=71 > [ 90.947153] ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x3 SErr 0x0 action 0x0 > [ 90.947158] ata1.00: irq_stat 0x40000008 > [ 90.947162] ata1.00: failed command: READ FPDMA QUEUED > [ 90.947168] ata1.00: cmd 60/20:00:e0:63:87/00:00:18:00:00/40 tag 0 ncq > 16384 in > [ 90.947169] res 41/40:00:ec:63:87/00:00:18:00:00/40 Emask 0x409 > (media error) <F> > > > Over the past few days to get Ubuntu to boot, from Grub I have to choose > the older version of the kernel (wireless doesn't work with that kernel > version or I'd stay with it) which then runs a disk check and fix, and then > reboot with the new kernel. > > I must say I've problems with various releases of Ubuntu on a couple of > new laptops (one Toshiba, one Advent) and different replacement hard > drives. > > -- > AHCI Hard Drive constantly erroring > https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/383632 > You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber > of the bug. > -- AHCI Hard Drive constantly erroring https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/383632 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
