| stego | Does anyone have any ideas on how to get around via82cxxx module (or compiled in) hanging the system on boot? It eventually gets loaded later ok, but if I put it at the top of /etc/modules (needed for enabling DMA), I can't boot up! | 03:11 |
|---|---|---|
| jbailey | What do you mean it's needed for DMA? | 03:12 |
| jbailey | You can use hdparm to enable DMA. | 03:12 |
| jbailey | Or if it's enabling DMA by efault when you do that, perhaps that's why your system's hanging? | 03:13 |
| stego | Unless I put via82cxxx at the top, hdparm returns "HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted" on one drive, and just hangs on the second optical drive. | 03:14 |
| stego | https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3672 says that DMA is disabled by default on CD-ROM drives though. | 03:14 |
| jbailey | Right. But it sounds like one of your devices doesn't support DMA and the other one is buggy. | 03:15 |
| stego | My hdparm.conf is all commented as (as default) | 03:15 |
| stego | But both work perfectly well in other distributions though! | 03:15 |
| stego | If you're at all interested, I have put my troubles to date up at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=28805 | 03:16 |
| jbailey | I don't really feel like looking at it right now. | 03:18 |
| jbailey | (I'm watching the simpsons at the same time) | 03:19 |
| stego | Ok. Where should I go for help? | 03:19 |
| jbailey | Since you have steps to reproduce and all that, your best bet is proably bugzilla. | 03:20 |
| stego | Ok, I will try that. Thanks and enjoy the Simpsons :) | 03:21 |
