@Brad I have tried the snapshot dated yesterday (29th November) and it exhibits the same problem.
Unicorn computers have confirmed that it used to work with older kernels it seems, I have not had a chance to verify this. Here is their list of examples; NAME KERNEL Debian 4.0 2.6.18-6-686 FreeBSD 6.4 FreeBSD 7.1 Fedora Core 8 2.6.23.1-42.fc8 Fedora Core 9 2.6.25-14.fc9.i686 OpenSUSE 10.3 2.6.22.5-31-default OpenSUSE 11.0 Arch Linux 0.72 Mandrake 10.0 Ubuntu 8.04 2.6.24-16-genernic I shall now start going back and seeing where the break appears. Also attached is a picture of the default BIOS options for the IDE controller on this board, in-case there is an option in here. ** Attachment added: "BIOS settings" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/897777/+attachment/2614570/+files/IMG_0119.JPG -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/897777 Title: DMA bug with ICH7-M To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/897777/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
