hmm. ok. Hannes' patch was the one in http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/3/6/47 ?

I never found a kernel where I could apply that one and still compile
without errors :(

I am no C guru, so I had no success to fix this patch without even
knowing where to apply against... (and I don't know anything about
kernel programming or even ACHI low-level programming).

Is there a newer version available of that patch somewhere?

And - what SATA ACPI patches?

I have quite alot of patches related to sata and/or acpi (collected from
different mailing lists) here on hard disk but don't know which ones are
broken, outdated, etc. Most only apply on a 2.6.15 or 2.6.14-rc kernel...

If more recent patches are only available via git, I'd need some good
GIT tutorial first...

TIA, and sorry for stealing your time,

Michael
Michael,

I ported a patch from OpenSUSE for AHCI suspend/resume. You may find the
patch at:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-ide&m=114774543416039&w=2

Jeff,
If Michael have a successful AHCI suspend/resume with this patch, I'm
glad to port the patch to current libata-dev #upstream for the second
time to push it into stock kernel. How do you think?

All reasonable patches accepted...

Jeff
