Donald J. Maddox stands accused of saying: > ide_pci: warning, ide0:0 not configured for DMA? > ide_pci: warning, ide0:1 not configured for DMA? > ide_pci: warning, ide1:0 not configured for DMA? > ide_pci: warning, ide1:1 not configured for DMA? > ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ > > Adding the proper flag does indeed enable the DMA, but I could care > less about that, since I only have Win95/NT on IDE drives. I just want to > know why I am getting the messages from ide_pci, and how to shut them up. Turn on IDE busmastering in your BIOS. Note the syntax of the warning "not configured". That's a message from the chipset driver daying "why is this channel not configured for DMA?". It should probably just list the ports on which DMA is available and enabled/not enabled, but this is, after all, only beta-level code. (Damn fine beta-level code if you ask me, but all the same..) > I should have been more specific in my original msg.
