Hi -
I know you guys are busy with 2.3.x development but I was wondering if there was the possibility that UDMA mode may be supported on a VIA Apollo chipset motherboard like the TYAN 100AT in the 2.2.x kernels? I currently use the 2.2.10 kernel on such a system with an AMD K6-II and UDMA does not work under Linux in spite of the fact that the BIOS recognizes the drives as UDMA hardware. Any help is much appreciated since right now these drives are giving me no more than 5 Mb/sect transfer rates.
Thanks.... Juan Casero casero@bellsouth.net
Oh and by the way I tried using hdparm to tune the devices but when the IDE bus is reset it loses the settings. using the -k option to hdparm will keep the driving from working at all.
