Krebs (akrebs@altavista.net), Maintainer * Copyright (C) 1998-99 Andre Hedrick, Integrater * Notes: * - I recently got a 16.8G IBM DTTA, so I was able to test it with * a large and fast disk - the results look great, so I'd say the * driver is working fine :-) * hdparm -t reports 8.17 MB/sec at about 6% CPU usage for the DTTA * - this is my first linux driver, so there's probably a lot of room * for optimizations and bug fixing, so feel free to do it. * - use idebus=xx parameter to set PCI bus speed - needed to calc * timings for PIO modes (default will be 40) * - if using PIO mode it's a good idea to set the PIO mode and * 32-bit I/O support (if possible), e.g. hdparm -p2 -c1 /dev/hda * - I had some problems with my IBM DHEA with PIO modes < 2 * (lost interrupts) ????? * - first tests with DMA look okay, they seem to work, but there is a * problem with sound - the BusMaster IDE TimeOut should fixed this This is your fix....
