Re: [BUG?] ata disk running maximum at DMA33 with 2.6.20 and new pata driver, NV CK804 ide controller.

[venom@sns.it]

I boot 2.6.20 also on a pentium4 with intel 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) IDE 
Controller and the same pata disk.
On this controller the disk runs in DMA100 as it should, so I'm prone to 
think it is a pata_amd.c driver trouble. Should try downgrading this 
driver from version 0.2.7 to version 0.2.4?

I looked at the diff, but I do not see why the new "static int 
amd_reinit_one(struct pci_dev *pdev)" , that has inside a clear 
a if (pdev->vendor == PCI_VENDOR_ID_AMD), should have some impact on a 
nvidia controller.

suggestions?
