Re: [SLE] DVD playback

As AA said correcting me, only hdparm will tell you whether you are using DMA. That output confirms that you -are- successfully using DMA. The error messages, although weird and terse, are nothing to worry about. I get the same: $ hdparm /dev/dvd | grep using_dma HDIO_GET_MULTCOUNT failed: Invalid argument HDIO_GETGEO failed: Invalid argument using_dma = 1 (on) $ I'm using a KT333 chipset on my motherboard.
