Hello Gadi,

I've tried both patches and DMA still does not work on my system.
Again, my system is a Tyan Titan III with the above shown PCI IDE chipset.
This box has been running with DMA under all previous kernels (was it
2.1.76 it broke at, I think?) without a problem. I'm running 2.1.84 now
and still no DMA. When I try to set it with hdparm, it says "Operation not
permitted". And at boot time, when the kernel lists the hard drives in the
system, it doesn't say "DMA" like it used to.

Thanks,
-bp
