1 Hello everyone,
2
3 I really like to use DMA for my cdrom/burner but I cant figure out how to make
4 it working!
5 I have a
6
7 hdc: HL-DT-ST DVD-RW GWA-4082N, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
8 ide1 at 0x170-0x177,0x376 on irq 15
9 hdc: ATAPI 24X DVD-ROM DVD-R CD-R/RW drive, 2048kB Cache
10
11 DMA is working fine for my disk but for cdrom I only get:
12
13 tapa ~ # hdparm -d1 /dev/cdrom
14 /dev/cdrom:
15 setting using_dma to 1 (on)
16 HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
17 using_dma = 0 (off)
18
19 Does anyone of you know if there is DMA support for this cdrom-drive and if
20 there is what to compile in the kernel? I already gave up to search ... because
21 nothing wanted to work!

23 Regards,
