Hello!
I'm not able to activate dma mode for cdrom drive in my laptop.
# hdparm -d1 /dev/hdd

/dev/hdd:
 setting using_dma to 1 (on)
 HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
 using_dma    =  0 (off)

I have the following hardvers:

I think the problem is that there is no driver for this chipset compiled into 
the kernel. But I don't know which driver should be compiled into. I tried 
Intel PIIXn but it didn't help.

Thanks for the help in advance,
István
