I have a similar setup and had the same problems. Dump your cables and get
ATA/100 Certified cables and you should not have this problem. Also keep
the cable length in mind. Anybody out there know if there's a max cable

If you use the VIA IDE driver, then you _must_ turn on
the "Automatically enable DMA for PCI-IDE" kernel configuration
option. It is said in the help text for the VIA-IDE option.

Try passing kernel params (eg- idebus=33 ide0=ata66 ide1=ata6) rather
than relying on hdparm to set up disks.
I'm on 2.2.19pre8 + ide.2.2.18.1221 but same board and cables, zero
errors. Also run a check with nothing but graphics, kbd, disks. KA7
seems to be particularly edgy with some addon cards (ES1370 & Promise
controller in my case) and <300W power (compared to P3B-F).

I also am using the cable supplied with the mobo (Abit kt7) so I do not
think it is ASUS specific. More likey it is releated to the

If I compile kernel with "Generic PCI bus-master DMA support"
and run "hdparm -d1 /dev/hda" I get 700% performance increase
on hdparm -t benchmark and I do not get any dma BadCRC errors.
It is only when I also compile in the VIA82CXXX option that I get the

To get ATA66 working well you need the right cables, you also need a machine
that is to spec on interference and the like. You cant just point at the cables
althoigh they are first guess.

I also am using the cable supplied with the mobo (Abit kt7) so I do not
think it is ASUS specific. More likey it is releated to the
VIA chipset and/or driver.
If I compile kernel with "Generic PCI bus-master DMA support"
and run "hdparm -d1 /dev/hda" I get 700% performance increase
on hdparm -t benchmark and I do not get any dma BadCRC errors.
It is only when I also compile in the VIA82CXXX option that I get the
"hda: dma_intr:status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }"
"hda: dma_intr:error=0x84 { DriveStatusError BadCRC }"
mesages (1000's of them).
Whether I get the messages or not, if I have dma enabled with 2.4.2
my usb mouse stops working .

That indicates cable problems. The CRC will avoid bad transfers
as it will do retries
Oh my god. Are you sure it's a cable problem? I'm using the
cable shipped by ASUS with my K7V and have the same problem:
devfs: v0.102 (2622) Richard Gooch ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
devfs: boot_options: 0x2
hda: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hda: dma_intr: error=0x84 { DriveStatusError BadCRC }
hda: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hda: dma_intr: error=0x84 { DriveStatusError BadCRC }
hda: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hda: dma_intr: error=0x84 { DriveStatusError BadCRC }
hda: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hda: dma_intr: error=0x84 { DriveStatusError BadCRC }
ide0: reset: success
Again, if it's really a cable problem, then ASUS is selling
cables that don't work with UDMA66 (but they sell it as
UDMA66).
I urge ASUS to explain this problem. If you do a search for
BadCRC at any lkml archive, you should notice most complaints
are from... VIA (and most seem to have an ASUS motherboard).

It happens when dma is enabled by hdparm -d1 /dev/hda or when dma is
enabled automatically by the kernel.
I have an Abit kt7 mb with the kt133 chipset,Athlon 900 , 128MB mem,
quantum fireball 20G disk, gcc 2-95-2 , glibc 2-2-1.
There are no problems with dma disabled.
I was not sure if the VIA82CXXX option should be set with the via kt133
chipset , but setting it results in hundreds of
hda: dma_intr:status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hda: dma_intr:error=0x84 { DriveStatusError BadCRC }
mesages along with the uhci: errors mentioned above.
...
Try passing kernel params (eg- idebus=33 ide0=ata66 ide1=ata6) rather
than relying on hdparm to set up disks.
I'm on 2.2.19pre8 + ide.2.2.18.1221 but same board and cables, zero
errors. Also run a check with nothing but graphics, kbd, disks. KA7
seems to be particularly edgy with some addon cards (ES1370 Promise
controller in my case) and 300W power (compared to P3B-F).

The USB code should recover from that , if it doesnt report it to the USB

ide / usb problem
I get the following message when copying a 300MB directory under 2.4.2.
uhci:host system error, PCI problems?
uhci:host controller halted, very bad
This does not happen under 2.4.1 and it happens every time under 2.4.2.
The system still runs fine except for usb mouse.
All of the files in the directory are copied correctly.
It happens when dma is enabled by hdparm -d1 /dev/hda or when dma is
enabled automatically by the kernel.
I have an Abit kt7 mb with the kt133 chipset,Athlon 900 , 128MB mem,
quantum fireball 20G disk, gcc 2-95-2 , glibc 2-2-1.
There are no problems with dma disabled.
I was not sure if the VIA82CXXX option should be set with the via kt133
chipset , but setting it results in hundreds of
hda: dma_intr:status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hda: dma_intr:error=0x84 { DriveStatusError BadCRC }
mesages along with the uhci: errors mentioned above.
Again , the directory was copied correctly.
Is there anyway to get 2.4.2 to use dma and not turn off my usb mouse ?
thanks jpd
