I am trying to get Ogle working again on RH8.0 and I am up against a
problem when I try and activate dma on my dvd drive:
    
    [root@touzi root]# hdparm -d 1 /dev/hdb
    /dev/hdb:
     setting using_dma to 1 (on)
     HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
     using_dma    =  0 (off)

Adding a h /etc/sysconfig/arddiskshdb file does not hep either.
How can I allow this kind of operation? I do not recall any such problem
with RH7.3.
Enabling dma on dvd players is essential for smooth playback (at least
on Ogle)
Does anyone have suggestions?

Sam.
