Comment 40 for bug 195221

I have just upgraded to 8.10 beta and can report that this bug still exists. I also tried the .deb package named libata-80wire (from http://launchpadlibrarian.net/17612513/libata-80wire_2.6.24-19.41_i386.deb) but up to now it's only available for kernel 2.6.24-19. It correctly sets my sda to UDMA/100, but my sound stops working (because I tested that kernel on Ibex - AFAIK that kernel is for Hardy).

Could anybody make that package for 8.10 please, without it my laptop works at a snail's pace - even slower that Windows. When I', on 2.6.24 (patched) it works great, but I want everything else to work too...

My Laptop: NEC Versa E400.
