I can reproduce this in ubuntu 8.04 with my T43.

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Confirmed

** Summary changed:

- DMA doesn't work in edgy on t43p dvd drive
+ DMA doesn't work in hardy on T43p dvd drive

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.17-10-generic
+ Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.24-10-generic
  
  Reading from the dvd drive in edgy is painfully slow. dd (invoked as: dd
  if=/dev/scd0 of=/dev/null bs=100M count=1) reports a read-speed of
  ~1.8MB/s. The same problem existed in dapper, and i think it's related
  to bug #42083.
  
  I've tried booting with combined_mode=ide, combined_mode=libata, neither
  made any difference, nor did passing the atapi_enabled=1 parameter to
  libata. Most of the instructions i've found on the net talk about
  getting libata/ata_piix to handle the sata controller instead of ide-
  generic, but in my case that's already the case, and DMA still doesn't
  work, despite dmesg claiming the drive is set up for UDMA/33. DMA works
  fine for the hard drive though.
  
  Software:
  Edgy release

  Ibm t43p laptop
