After upgrading from 7.10 to 8.4 I get the message that dma is disabled for my ide harddisk and of course that slows down my system. Trying ~# hdparm -d1 /dev/hda just gives me
/dev/hda:
setting using_dma to 1 (on)
HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
using_dma = 0 (off)
When I google on HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted the results suggest that modules for my chipset are not loaded. Using lspci to find out about my chipset I get the following result:
...
00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev 82)
00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL (ICH4/ICH4-L) LPC Interface Bridge (rev 02)
00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801DB (ICH4) IDE Controller (rev 02)
00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) SMBus Controller (rev 02)
...
Does anybody have an idea which module should be loaded?
Thanks in advance, Ulrich
