[Bug 635577] [NEW] Kernel keeps reporting "EH complete" for ATA hd disk

[RichardN]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.35-20-generic

I read somewhere that earlier version of kernel repored EH complete for
ATA drivers incorrectly. So there was no problem with the drive or
controller, just the kernel.

Since my laptop is running fine  (although Vista tends to park diskheads
outside the disk) and the only error I see is:

ata3.00: configured for UDMA/100
ata3: EH complete


I assume this is due to changes in the kernel.
