I have a dual Ppro200 with 440FX chipset and an IBM 30GB ide disk. The
kernel is 2.2.18pre18 with no additional patches. DMA appears not to work
with this combination.

On another box with a single PPro200 and 440FX chipset, DMA works just
fine. That box also has IBM disk (30GB) but runs 2.0.37.
Should I try the IDE-patch or suspect the cable? Can anybody confirm that
DMA works with 440FX and a recent 2.2.x?
