Personally, I would compile them into kernel.
You can get the module names from menuconfig/xconfig by selecting them and
choosing help.
Modprobe them, then hdparm /dev/hda. If dma is n

I got this:
/dev/hda:
Timing cached reads: 1344 MB in 2.00 seconds = 672.10 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads:8 MB in 3.51 seconds = 2.28 MB/sec

A quick test would be
hdparm -tT /dev/hda
(or whatever drive you are concerned about.) Greater than 15MB/S is
almost certainly DMA but good DMA from newer drives should be
25-50MB/S
You can look at the drives parameters using hdparm and reading through
the man page to understand what all the va
Hello,
I am not sure, but I think I am experiencing dramatic slow down on my computer
when doing HD intensive (but not CPU intensive) tasks such as coping files
(or rsyncing).
Is it possible that I have disabled dma, or missing a kernel module for my IDE
controler or something like that ?
