[Cooker] Mandrake 9.0 and I845G and DMA

[Ray Carlino]

I am having same problem with Dell 4500 machines.
Is there a fix yet???????????
I have heard maybe 2.4.20 kernel fixes this problem.


Hi all

I've got a problem with my Intel I845G chipset (Asus motherboard).
I reported this bug in the middle of september. The patch

When the system boots I recieve the errors found in "lines from
/var/dmesg".

In that case it is impossible to activate the dma mode for my ide
harddrive. The problem is that I need this performance for burning
cdroms or watching dvds.

I also tried the patch that I found in another message in this
mailinglist, but the same result.

It would be great if someone may help me..
