[Sorry for the doublepost.] What do the following commands output?: # hdparm -I /dev/dvd | grep -i dma # dmesg | grep -i dma Also, what output drivers are you using for MPlayer? I recommend the following $ gmplayer -ao alsa9 -vo xv DVD playback is as smooth as silk on my machine with these. On Sunday 01 December 2002 07:51, John Pettigrew wrote:
When I set DMA on using hdparm, the drive was still under scsi emulation and it crashed the computer totally (BIOS lockup, keyboard lights blinking). So, I changed it to IDE and set DMA on using YaST's DMA tool. The drive now allows access, but I stil get choppy DVD playback.
