Switching to an ATA100 or an ATA133 controller (PDC 20267 and PDC 20269 respectively) instead of the onboard controller causes no change; cdrecord with the mache patch as well as cdrecord-ProDVD fail. hdparm reported dma was not enabled, so for good measure I tried hdparm -d1 on the (ide) device node, with no effect. Also trying hdparm -c1 caused (either) cdrecord to stop working entirely. -D -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
