I do have DMA errors sometimes. It's not too bad, like with others, where their systems hang completely and such. Mine hasn't frozen in quite a while I don't think. I just checked my dmesg and I don't see any DMA errors right now using 0.3.2f, WITHOUT the pcitweak setting (I think I rebooted the computer the other day). Just to make sure it wasn't set, I read that register and it's showing 0x00008080 now, whereas it used to be 0xFFFF or something like that. So, as we can see, my problem isn't too bad...no DMA errors as of yet. I won't hold my breath though, as they're bound to show up sooner or later.
I guess I'll run the pcitweak command again and see if anything shows up. ~Lou On Apr 5, 2005 11:00 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > But did your DMA errors go away after you did the pcitweak? > (or weren't you the one who was having DMA errors?)
