Sorry, I previously said that it was working fine (both version I and version
II). However, I'm an idiot.
I never tried my CD-ROM!
Today I finally did, and it doesn't work at all -- it says "device not
configured" when I try to access it. I double-checked, and if I boot with my
original installed kernel, the CD-ROM still works fine; moreover, my custom
kernel does have the CD-ROM enabled (CD9660 and atapicd). I do have this
set, FWIW, and perhaps I should not:
device ata0 at isa? port IO_WD1 irq 14
device ata1 at isa? port IO_WD2 irq 15
and I also enable DMA to the CD-ROM.
I have some things to try (disabled DMA, for example), and a possible source
fo the difficulty is that I applied the patches to a 4.5-RC #5 kernel rather
than to an up-to-date stable.
This is on a Dell Inspiron 8000, with a CD-RW/DVD combo drive in the "fixed
bay."
Per "atacontrol reinit 0", I have this on channel 0:
i8k# atacontrol reinit 0
Master: ad0 <IC25T048ATDA05-0/DA8OA70A> ATA/ATAPI rev 5
Slave: acd0 <TOSHIBA CD-RW/DVD-ROM SD-R2002/1D26> ATA/ATAPI rev 5
Also, when I do the reinit, I get this in the log:
Mar 12 17:12:03 i8k /kernel: ad0: DMA limited to UDMA33, non-ATA66 cable or
device
but no other indications, at either reinit or mount time, that anything's
wrong.
- Wanted to let you know that there's a problem & apologize for not noticing
it earlier.
- Will try disabling the DMA (though I doubt that will make a difference) and
cvsuping the to latest stable, and re-applying the patches, to see if that
makes any difference, and will look around for obvious diagnostic tools.
- Is there anything else I should be doing to help you diagnose the problem.
