I think (but don't quote me) that there is a problem  with DMA in 2.4.21....
works fine in 2.4.20, maybe try that

Hi again,

I was root. As non root I would get

Hi folks,

I already asked about this issue once but didn't get any answers so I
try it again.

I have an IBM Thinkpad A31p with Debian sarge + some sid packages on it.
Recently I updated to kernel 2.4.21 but with this kernel it seems not to
be possible to change into DMA mode. (it was possible with 2.4.20).

A "hdparm -d 1 /dev/hda" reports:
/dev/hda:
setting using_dma to 1 (on)
HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
using_dma    =  0 (off)
Has anybody a hint why this can happen or at least where I can get some
answers?

Thanks in advance
Marcel
