I think it was fixed. The G4 iBook that I've acquired since those 
reports works flawlessly, and I haven't received any other reports, 
positive or negative, since my earlier attempts at fixing those bugs. If 
anyone whose machine didn't work before now does, or is still broken, or 
even if your machine has always worked fine with the DMA support, I 
would very much appreciate an email.
