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.
