Bug#345374: linux-image-2.6.14-2-686: I too have this problem
Package: linux-image-2.6.14-2-686
Version: 2.6.14-7
Followup-For: Bug #345374
I have the same problem. When piix is loaded as a module, I am unable to
mess with DMA settings. However, when I compile piix statically, I can
set DMA without a hitch. This issue has been discussed on debian-user,
and I believe it is a kernel bug, but I feel more comfortable reporting
bugs here (and I don't know how to report a kernel bug). Here's the
thread on debian-user:

Cheers.
