Bug 173011

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-GB; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20051001 Fedora/1.0.7-1.1.fc4.1fnx Firefox/1.0.7

Description of problem:
I used to use /etc/sysconfig/harddiskhd? to ensure DMA was enabled on my devices;  recently [FC4] this has been deprecated in favour of the kernel correctly detecting defaults.

The only thing I've found to be wrong is that my DVD-ROM drive doesn't get DMA enabled by default;  it was suggested on the fedora list that this be flagged as a kernel bug report.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.6.13-1.1526_FC4smp

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. hdparm /dev/hdb

  

Actual Results:  using_dma = 0 (off)

Expected Results:  using_dma = 1 (on)
