my dmesg. the hda errors at the end never showed up on Dapper. at last, I can understand why settings can't be applyed at boot with messages "hda : DMA disabled", but theses messages didn't show up on Dapper too... I could be totally blind, but i've checked many times in dmesg before, looking for a clue.
