[Basil Chupin <blchupin@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In version 10.3, in YaST Control Centre in the Hardware section there
was an entry called "DMA" (or some-such) which gave you the DMA used by
the discs and the CDROM and DVD burner. You could also change the DMA
for each device.

In version 11.0 this option has disappeared - or has it been hidden
somewhere else? Anyone know where it is now?

I am now testing Beta4 of 11.1 and find that any DVD I try to play skips
and stutters just like it did back in 10.3 if the DMA (of the CDROM) was
not correctly set.

My notes show me how to force the correct DMA in etc/sysconfig/ide but I
cannot remember what the command line statement is which will display
what DMA is being used by each of the devices. Could someone please
refresh my memory?

Ciao.
