    Hi,

    I am currently running 2.6.0-test6 on an old PII which has a SiI3112
    SATA PCI card in one of its PCI slots. It seems that the SiI3112 is not
    using DMA so now it is even running slower then the onboard PIIX4 IDE
    controller.

    Is DMA supported on the Si3112? DMA is not being enabled by the SiI3112
    card's BIOS (this is a cheap PCI card):

    SiI3112 Serial ATA: IDE controller at PCI slot 0000:00:0b.0
    SiI3112 Serial ATA: chipset revision 2
    SiI3112 Serial ATA: 100% native mode on irq 11
        ide2: MMIO-DMA at 0xd8807000-0xd8807007, BIOS settings: hde:pio,
    hdf:pio
        ide3: MMIO-DMA at 0xd8807008-0xd880700f, BIOS settings: hdg:pio,
    hdh:pio
    hde: ST3120026AS, ATA DISK drive
    ide2 at 0xd8807080-0xd8807087,0xd880708a on irq 11

    Greetings,

    Jurgen
