Got same problem with i845 ( Dell dimension 4500). A fix was tried in kernel mdk-13 but still don't work on my box (maybe someone was sucesfull). I also tried kernel mdk-15 with same unsucesfull result.
I Read that kernel 2.4.19ac4 fixed the problem on a kernel mailing list. It's really too bad because what ever speed imporvement you do with other stuff, without dma activated my computer respond very slowly. regards Sebastien -------------- EXCEPTIONNEL!
