5.3 interrupt storm (atapicam)

[ad5gb]

Greetings,

I seem to have made a little progress with the atapicam driver.  It seems if I
force PIO mode (hw.ata.atapi_dma="0" in /boot/loader.conf) a kernel with the
atapicam device will boot.  I still cannot access a disk in the drive however
either via the acdx device or the new cdx device provided by the atapicam
driver.

Perhaps you could try adding that line in your /boot/loader.conf and see if it
cures your problem????

 Hi,<br><br> Could you give a look at my post dated 04/01/2005 entitled "Freeze with CAM <br>(using KsCD)"? Maybe we have fallen on the same kind of bug concerning <br>atapicam.<br><br> If you have KDE, maybe you should try to reproduce the problem I had. I've no <br>time to test your scenario (the one with the EIDE drive, I don't have SCSI) <br>now, but I'll try to reproduce it at the beginning of next week, in order to <br>see if the freeze happens also on my computer.<br><br> Hope this will help us to progress on our issues.<br><br> Regards,<br><br>  Olivier<br>_______________________________________________<br>freebsd-questions at freebsd.org mailing list<br>http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions<br>To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe at freebsd.org"<br>
