Hi everyone, How can I get the system use the UDMA by default. If I understood correctly when using the hdparm with the -k option the current settings are saved but not for all the time. Is there a way to getthis fixed so when ever the system boots warm or cold it will use the UDMA mode thx -- Togan Muftuoglu toganm@yahoo.com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Put the hdparm command into /etc/rc.d/boot.local and it'll be executed whenever you boot linux.

Hi everyone, for setting the UDMA by default question two answers came both different. Just to make sure I do this on one go, which of them make more sense to you
Put the hdparm command into /etc/rc.d/boot.local and it'll be executed whenever you boot linux. (that sounds better to my ear
or may be putting
hdparm -cN -dM /dev/hdX
with appropriate values of N, M and X in /etc/profile will >help?
but /etc/profile works after the system boots and loads the kernel runts the inetd. Am I getting confused by the way I think ? -- Togan Muftuoglu toganm@yahoo.com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo!

The first option is better. I wonder who suggested it :-> /etc/profile ist executed every time a user logs in, but for hdparm it is sufficient to be executed once -- at the time the system boots. And there's another drawback with /etc/profile: It is executed with the permission of the user who logs into the system, but hdparm has to be run with root permissions (or more precisely, by a user who has write access to /dev/hdX): [sttr]/home/sttr> /usr/local/sbin/hdparm -d 1 /dev/hdg /dev/hdg: Permission denied [sttr]/home/sttr> su Password: [root]/home/sttr# /usr/local/sbin/hdparm -d 1 /dev/hdg /dev/hdg: setting using_dma to 1 (on) using_dma = 1 (on) Ciao, Stefan -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/

Minor correction: it has to be root who runs hdparm, having write access to /dev/hdX is not sufficient.

Hi everyone, The problem I have is as follows. I want to use the UDMA support of my Harddisks. I have the Asus P3C2000 board with the i820 chipset. While reading thru the intel site I have noticed i810 and i820 are using the same IDE control device. Now the question is the xi810 in the packages xserver only serves to get the X going on or also supports the ide device control ?

The X server has nothing to do with anything other than what is need for a
graphical desktop.
IDE support is strictly a matter of the kernel and kernels from either SuSE
Linux 6.3 or 6.4 should support it, at least those for 'special EIDE
chipsets'.
