DOlson Posted August 22, 2003 Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 Make sure you have CONFIG_IDEPCI_SHARE_IRQ enabled in your kernel config. At least if it seems slow to you. I have been running for a few months without this enabled, and now that I enabled it, things are faster again. I'm not sure how or why I disabled it, but I did. If you have any reverse results, please post your experience here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
static Posted August 22, 2003 Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 Is this in 2.4, 2.6, or both? And where in the menuconfig is this found? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOlson Posted August 22, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 I don't know where it is in menuconfig... somewhere in the IDE configuration stuff. Check the Help to get the exact parameter. I am using 2.4. I don't know if this is my magical switch or not, but it seemed to make a difference for now. I can at least open a new Nautilus window while copying a 600MB file to my desktop... Couldn't do that before. If you wanna check if you have it or not, just grep CONFIG_IDEPCI_SHARE_IRQ /boot/config-whatever-version-you-have.
