Maybe there is nowhere to map the card's buffers into the bottom 4Gb of

problem with all PCI cards plus AGP cards etc but maybe most systems
or cards have a workaround?)
Google has hits for this error from this driver eg
http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/7/23/5
And there's a kernel patch in the thread which may be in recent kernels;
boot with "iommu=soft swiotlb=force" to try the workaround.
Thanks, tried, same as before (no go).
Bye
