No DMA with ASUS W3030V - ahci/ata_piix issue? Workarounds?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Greetings,

I am having problems with DMA access on my laptops drives. My research so far 
indicates that this is likely to be an issue with the current state of ahci 
development.

There are no BIOS options available for the IDE that are suggested in 
workarounds.

Is there anything I can do to enable DMA for IDE drives, enable/disbale 
options in the kernel?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,

The laptop: ASUS W3030V.
Kernel: 2.6.12-gentoo-sources-r9
