Whether DMA is on or off has no bearing on bus or disk data transmission
and does not explain your symptoms. If DMA was off, the burning would
work anyway, just much slower on a slow computer.

Yep, well-known fact of the Linux kernel to turn DMA off when there are
device transmission errors. Dates back to early Linux days when DMA
suport was shaky at best, and a system which boots without DMA was
better than a kernel panic.

It emerged on the by-the-by last time that you are talking about
brand-new hardware. Get your act up and take the crap back to the shop.
