I can't find anything useful on that page... I don't see that DMA error.
After poking around my machine and the web, it seems the speed warning
message is created because my machine doesn't appear to have an
80-wire IDE cable connecting the hard drive to the motherboard.
Since both the drive and the hard drive are ATA133 compliant, and it's
a laptop so the IDE cable will be about five inches long, isn't there
some way I can make it think there's an 80 wire cable present?
The bios isn't that helpful, and adding "ide0=ata66" to my GRUB
command line doesn't do anything. Attempting to set the drive's speed
above UDMA2 still results in the speed warning.
The actual IDE controller is a SIS963.
