Perhaps the *kernel* part of this problem (here) has been solved, and the remaining issues resides *elsewhere* in the Ubuntu source.
Two clues in this regard: 1-Similar LITE-ON problems (here) exist in PCLinuxOS with 2.6.18 kernel are also *resolved* with the Bug 105437 approach; and 2-Fedora Core 6, with 2.6.18 kernel does *not* have the LITE-ON problem (here). The (here) qualifier means maybe my problems are related to SATA/PATA mixed drives and Intel ICH5 driver as well as LITE-ON peculiarities of my hardware setup. -- libata fail to initialize LITE-ON LTR-40125S https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/103410 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
