okay i FINALlY got 2.6.22-14-generic installed However it ran fast on the CD but not on this upgrade :( the drives DID INDEED change from SCSI ones to back to HDA and when running hdparm -t /dev/hda1 it shows
/dev/hda1: Timing buffered disk reads: 10 MB in 3.22 seconds = 3.10 MB/sec /dev/hda /dev/hda: Timing buffered disk reads: 10 MB in 3.27 seconds = 3.05 MB/sec .............. when i tried setting DMA on HDA1 (hard drive mounted as that) it shows the following setting using_dma to 1 (on) HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Invalid argument using_dma = 0 (off) /dev/hda setting using_dma to 1 (on) HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted using_dma = 0 (off) .................. After doing a search on clusty I found out that when a kernel when trying to hdparm dma on it throws out the operation not permitted error, well it means that a PARTICULAR Chipset is NOT compiled into the kernel itself..Yes I got my CDs today and YES I kind of installed from that and also it did have to go out and download 18mb or such or I probably didn't add the apt-cdrom right and the last was from a last download i don't know tho.. -- Gutsy hangs at boot with COMRESET failed error (kernel 2.6.22-13 and 2.6.22-14) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/150259 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
