The 18 month support period for Edgy Eft 6.10 has reached it's end of life. As a result, we are closing the linux-source-2.6.17 Edgy Eft kernel task. However, please note that this report will remain open against the actively developed kernel. Thank you for your continued support and help as we debug this issue.
** Changed in: linux-source-2.6.17 (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid ** Description changed: Binary package hint: linux-image-generic [still happening with 2.6.20-14 although less often than it used to] [up-to-date feisty... the problem was present with edgy as well, which prompted me to upgrade] [hardy heron... all hell broke loose since 2.6.24. Freezes are more frequent than ever.] [hardware: Asus F3JC (notebook)] Problems with ata2 seem strongly correlated with system freeze (hard to trace because of the complete freeze). The symptoms are generally: 1- freeze on X 2- if quick enough, I can switch to a console (Ctrl + F*) 3- trying to log on the console prompts error messages like "ata2: speed down requests" "Error sending Cmd #07" "Write error on swap device", etc... The systems never get to log me in 4- trying to access the computer remotely is unsuccessful (the machine does not answer anymore) 5- only a hard reboot is possible /var/log/messages contains the following during normal operations Mar 3 10:30:23 hot-spring kernel: [ 1810.944000] ata2.00: limiting speed to PIO2 Mar 3 10:30:23 hot-spring kernel: [ 1810.944000] res 40/00:03:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/a0 Emask 0x4 (timeout) Mar 3 10:30:30 hot-spring kernel: [ 1817.948000] ata2: port is slow to respond, please be patient (Status 0xd0) Mar 3 10:30:53 hot-spring kernel: [ 1840.964000] ata2: soft resetting port Mar 3 10:30:54 hot-spring kernel: [ 1841.300000] ACPI Error (dsopcode-0481): Attempt to CreateField of length zero [20060707] Mar 3 10:30:54 hot-spring kernel: [ 1841.300000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.RATA] (Node df994770), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:30:54 hot-spring kernel: [ 1841.300000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.CHN1.DRV0._GTF] (Node df9948c4), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:30:54 hot-spring kernel: [ 1841.492000] ACPI Error (dsopcode-0481): Attempt to CreateField of length zero [20060707] Mar 3 10:30:54 hot-spring kernel: [ 1841.492000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.RATA] (Node df994770), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:30:54 hot-spring kernel: [ 1841.492000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.CHN1.DRV0._GTF] (Node df9948c4), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:30:54 hot-spring kernel: [ 1841.492000] ata2.00: configured for PIO2 Mar 3 10:30:54 hot-spring kernel: [ 1841.492000] ata2: EH complete Mar 3 10:32:20 hot-spring kernel: [ 1927.576000] ata2.00: limiting speed to PIO1 Mar 3 10:32:20 hot-spring kernel: [ 1927.576000] res 40/00:03:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/a0 Emask 0x4 (timeout) Mar 3 10:32:27 hot-spring kernel: [ 1934.584000] ata2: port is slow to respond, please be patient (Status 0xd0) Mar 3 10:32:50 hot-spring kernel: [ 1957.600000] ata2: soft resetting port Mar 3 10:32:50 hot-spring kernel: [ 1957.944000] ACPI Error (dsopcode-0481): Attempt to CreateField of length zero [20060707] Mar 3 10:32:50 hot-spring kernel: [ 1957.944000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.RATA] (Node df994770), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:32:50 hot-spring kernel: [ 1957.944000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.CHN1.DRV0._GTF] (Node df9948c4), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:32:50 hot-spring kernel: [ 1958.136000] ACPI Error (dsopcode-0481): Attempt to CreateField of length zero [20060707] Mar 3 10:32:50 hot-spring kernel: [ 1958.136000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.RATA] (Node df994770), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:32:50 hot-spring kernel: [ 1958.136000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.CHN1.DRV0._GTF] (Node df9948c4), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:32:50 hot-spring kernel: [ 1958.136000] ata2.00: configured for PIO1 Mar 3 10:32:50 hot-spring kernel: [ 1958.136000] ata2: EH complete Mar 3 10:34:52 hot-spring kernel: [ 2079.484000] ata2.00: limiting speed to PIO0 Mar 3 10:34:52 hot-spring kernel: [ 2079.484000] res 40/00:03:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/a0 Emask 0x4 (timeout) + Mar 3 10:34:59 hot-spring kernel: [ 2086.488000] ata2: port is slow to respond, please be patient (Status 0xd0) Mar 3 10:35:22 hot-spring kernel: [ 2109.504000] ata2: soft resetting port Mar 3 10:35:22 hot-spring kernel: [ 2109.848000] ACPI Error (dsopcode-0481): Attempt to CreateField of length zero [20060707] Mar 3 10:35:22 hot-spring kernel: [ 2109.848000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.RATA] (Node df994770), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:35:22 hot-spring kernel: [ 2109.848000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.CHN1.DRV0._GTF] (Node df9948c4), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:35:22 hot-spring kernel: [ 2110.040000] ACPI Error (dsopcode-0481): Attempt to CreateField of length zero [20060707] Mar 3 10:35:22 hot-spring kernel: [ 2110.040000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.RATA] (Node df994770), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:35:22 hot-spring kernel: [ 2110.040000] ACPI Error (psparse-0537): Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.IDE0.CHN1.DRV0._GTF] (Node df9948c4), AE_AML_OPERAND_VALUE Mar 3 10:35:22 hot-spring kernel: [ 2110.040000] ata2.00: configured for PIO0 Mar 3 10:35:22 hot-spring kernel: [ 2110.040000] ata2: EH complete ** Tags added: edgy-close -- system locking up (forcing a hard reboot) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/89362 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
