So perhaps i'm not using via82cxxx and am instead using the generic IDE driver? It seems so. If you're not using initrd, you might want to compile in the via82cxxx driver (i.e., not as a module), otherwise the kernel can't read it from the disk. That works great here :) Just remember to recompile your kernel with IDE generic support (or, alternatively, use initrd to load the IDE modules) if, in the future, you change to a non-VIA IDE controller.

Did you try disabling generic IDE support in the kernel configuration? Check http://ck.kolivas.org/audio_hints.txt . Greetings, Ric Otte wrote: Hi, I have an Abit AV8 that works well except that I'm unable to set DMA on my cd/dvd drive. Whenever I try hdparm -d1 /dev/hda (sata hard drive, so cd is hda), I get the following: /dev/hda: setting using_dma to 1 (on) HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted using_dma= 0 (off) During startup there is also a message about trying and failing to start DMA on it, but it flies by rather fast and I can't reproduce it here (it isn't in dmesg). I tried making a script in /etc/init.d that would set the DMA, but that didn't work. I believe the relevant part of lspci -v is: :00:0f.1 IDE interface: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT82C586A/B/VT82C686/A/B/VT823x/A/C PIPC Bus Master IDE (rev 06) (prog-if 8a [Master SecP PriP]) Subsystem: ABIT Computer Corp.: Unknown device 1415 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 20 I/O ports at d400 [size=16] Capabilities: [c0] Power Management version 2 and under lsmod I have "via82cxxx 14064" 1 listed. I'm using kernel 2.6.10. So I put in the Ubuntu AMD64 Hoary live cd and booted off of it. Surprisingly, I was able to set DMA on the cd/dvd drive. So I copied their .config file of the kernel and /etc/modules. I recompiled my kernel with only two changes (amd64 instead of generic, no rivafb), and added anything in their /etc/modules to mine. But I still can't set DMA, although I can still set it from the live cd. This really baffles me. Has anybody been able to set DMA on an optical drive with this motherboard, have any suggestions, or know why I can set it with Ubuntu but not with Debian?
