I striped two 200GB HDD to a 400GB HDD (hardware RAID).
The partition table claims that there is a 400GB HDD, but LINUX assumes
two separate 200GB HDD's
I replaced the first HDD by a different HDD, turned RAID off and booted
without libata.dma=1, and the problem occured again.
Then, I booted using libata.dma=1, and the problem disappeared!!!
A thousand thanks to Alan Cox!!!!
If some developer is interested, then I can provide more information and
make some more experiments.
Best regards, Daniel

What about stability? My first goal would be to have a stable enough
system with those drivers. I dont currently care about the "desktop
effects".
One of the problems with nvidia is when wanting to use a Wen kernel: not
possible without hack.
My brother, the gamer, will still switch to Windows to play his games. I
just want a cool system. Why insisting on ATI? Because of the freedom of
the specs.
