I'm running 8.1. I didn't have powertweak installed, so I downloaded and installed it, -extra, -gtk, and yast2- for 8.1. I now have powertweak as an option in Yast, yet I am not able to change any values. My ELEVATOR_READ_LATENCY default is set to 1024.
I also only have DMA setting available as IDE DMA mode, and only for hda.
Any suggestions?

I might be mistaken, but isn't it so that there are no pull-down menues or boxes or anything like that in 8.1, you simply type the drives you want to enable DMA for: "hda, hdb, hdc"
Although I do have pulldown menus, I am unable to change anything. I can't alter the default settings at all. I can highlight the entry, but cannot delete the contents of the value box, or enter any new values. Having the powertweak feature in Yast is useless if I can't make any changes on any of the sections listed in powertweak. It just shows me the default info. How do I set DMA for my drives? How can I change the read-latency? Bernd -- "If you want to build a ship, don't drum up the men to gather wood, divide the work, and give orders.
