Description David Wagoner 2004-01-22 17:03:16 EST 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.6)

Description of problem:
With a fresh install of Fedora Core 1 on my Dell Latitude CPi D266XT
Laptop when i open a terminal and run hdparm -tT /dev/hda1 I recieve
almost 9MB/s constant data transfers with 20MB/s for the cache. I then
tried one of the unofficial rpms for the 2.6.x kernel and recieved the
same performance issue. I then downloaded the source code to 2.4.24
and compiled the kernel myself. I rebooted and ran the same hdparm
command under the same situation. I recieved almost 9MB/s constant
data transfers but I also recieved 109MB/s for my hard drives cache.
The computer was much more responsive with the new kernel and ran amazing.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.4.22-xxxx

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.do an install of fedora core 1
2.hdparm -tT /dev/hda1
3.
    

Actual Results:  9MB/s constant data
20MB/s cache

Expected Results:  9MB/s constant data
109MB/s cache

Additional info:

The Dell Latitude CPi D266XT uses a PII cpu. It uses the Intel PIIx
ide module.

Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of

persists.
