Settle down Joey. AFAIK my MUA doesn't offer the facility. It does allow

did it. You're the first to make a fuss over it.
fwiw 2.4.27-1-686 also sucks:
ns:~# hdparm -d1 /dev/hda
/dev/hda:
setting using_dma to 1 (on)
HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
using_dma= 0 (off)
ns:~# hdparm -t /dev/hda{,}
/dev/hda:
