Public bug reported: Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6-686
This is a feature request. Some mainboards (e.g. my Asrock 775Dual-VSTA) come with a PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_82C586_1 IDE controller together with a VIA VT8237A southbridge. While the corresponding PCI ID is already present in pci_ids.h, the via82cxxx driver doesn't know about it yet and disables DMA. There has been a kernel patch submitted for 2.6.18_rc4 at http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0608.1/0771.html I'm requesting that it be integrated into the Dapper kernel. ** Affects: linux-meta (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- via82cxxx disables DMA on Asrock 775Dual-VSTA https://launchpad.net/bugs/56823 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
