Trixbox and DMA

[Peter MacFarlane]

I see that our new server has DMA turned off for the IDE disk.  This is 
one of the possible reasons for the "Losing too many ticks" message that 
eventually shows up on the main console, which also seems to be related 
to packet throughput speed.  The motherboard has a VIA chipset and I 
don't seem to be able to turn DMA on manually.  Is this a known problem 
and a failure to spec the right motherboard for Trixbox 1.2.3?  Its a 
new ASUS Core 2 duo board.

I was thinking of increasing the packet buffer sizes.  I believe the 
default is 115K or so.

Your opinion is appreciated,
Peter M.
