That's odd.  The 8.2 kernel doesn't recognize that chipset as being
capable of doing dma.  The cooker kernel does recognize it and enables
it.

Second, I assume that you have updated the cdrecord/xcdroast/whatever
that came with 8.2?  If not, those versions tha tshipped with 8.2 have
problems that are solved by applying the updates.  If you're using
Cooker, then I'm curious what's going on because it should be working.
I've got one of those and I've burned CD's (but it was an IDE burner so
it's not a valid comparison).
