[PATCH] IDE: enable PATA UDMA support for ICH7
Hello,
I have ASUS P5LD2-VM mobo with Intel ICH7 PATA IDE. It works only
in PIO mode, so I changed piix driver in 2.4.35 to support UDMA modes -
patch is bellow.
I'm a little bit confused about the specifications of ICH7 PATA, from ASUS
say it is UDMA 100, but from Intel and in 2.6.XX kernel tree it is as UDMA
133. My confusion became stronger and from bios ide SATA/PATA options of
my mobo.
Anyway, the patch works for me and it should work for all mobos with 945
chipset, but need to be tested. If there are any volunteers to apply patch
and test it will be good.
Please report the results and play around with mobo bios SATA/PATA IDE
setings.
Best Regards,
Ivaylo Josifov
