Re: DMA not working

Hi Lorenzo,
I have the same controller (rev 03, however) and I never got DMA to work
when PIIX was loaded as a module. Once I compiled it statically into my
kernel (currently a custom 2.6.12 on a Debian Sid system) the problem
vanished without further work and DMA was activated automatically when I
booted into the new kernel.
Florian, you're my savior! :-)
you're right! it works now that it is compiled statically!
I should have thought about it (since I had a similar problem with the
yenta socket module), but I was refusing to believe it was like that
again :-)
thanks again!
cheers
Lorenzo
