Using the deadline scheduler had no significant effect on my problems (ref the 427210 bug). I give up. AFAIK the Asus P5B and P5QL SE mainboards are not compatible with Ubuntu (and/or the kernel or some I/O stuff used by Ubuntu). I will install Ubuntu on another hopefully compatible box, as I really need to use a linux distro.
BTW: My most recent working Ubuntu version was 6.10. The scheduler stuff seems to help some. -- Slow SATA performance https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/119730 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
