           Summary: HD not detected
    Kernel Version: 2.6.17-git12 (vanilla from kernel.org)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal

Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: not known
Distribution: Gentoo
Hardware Environment: x86_64, Seagate HD
Software Environment:
Problem Description: Seagate HD not detected

Steps to reproduce:

I recently added a Seagate HD (500Go Sata 7200.10) to my PC.
It had already a ST3120026AS and a WD1500ADFD-0, properly running, and still
running correctly...

The drive is visible in the BIOS.

This one is not detected by the linux kernel whereas it is by the other OS (and
performs very well ~48Mo/s writing), and fail with this in dmesg:

ata1: port is slow to respond, please be patient
ata1: port failed to respond (30 secs)

I tried some random tweaking of libata-core.c:__libata_phy_reset()
by lengthening the timeouts and delays, because some googling revealed this to
paper over similar reports of failure to detect seagate drives...

But it is not working, I know get that:

Jun 28 04:10:04 localhost ata1: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x150000
action 0x2 frozen
Jun 28 04:10:05 localhost ata1: soft resetting port
Jun 28 04:10:12 localhost ata1: port is slow to respond, please be patient
Jun 28 04:10:35 localhost ata1: port failed to respond (30 secs)
Jun 28 04:10:35 localhost ata1: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300)
Jun 28 04:10:35 localhost ata1: EH pending after completion, repeating EH (cnt=4)
Jun 28 04:10:35 localhost ata1: EH complete

but it's about 8 minutes after system is booted...

ask for more info, and I'll provide it...

I'currently compiling -mm to see if it has better results...
