There are many reasons for this Problem. Which Kernel Version are you running
(uname -a). Which distribution? SuSE, Debian, Mandrake, RedHat?

Re: DMA problem

[DOSProfi]

I don't know if this works, but I have found a new BIOS for that board:

http://www.asus.com.tw/support/download/item.aspx?ModelName=P4P800

In the notes are many "DMA"s inside.

Re: DMA problem

[Wes Janzen]

If those options don't work, you might try dropping down the dma mode by 
one.  I have a Maxtor drive that does something like that with my 
Promise PDC20269 when trying to use UDMA 2, but it works fine in UDMA 1.

Firmware is up to date ....
I tried it with an other cable , UDMA 100 certified,
I tried all kind of things, putting the drive as master
but nothing has worked till yet.


Thanks for your answer

Re: DMA problem

[Andreas Unterkircher]

Is it possible that your ide-cable can't handle the higher dma speeds
and makes errors? is it udma compatible? have you looked for a
firmware update for the burner @ www.plextor.com?

DMA problem

[claude parisot]

  Hello !

Sorry to post a seconfd message on the list, I am only trying
to get an answern for this - it seems so - DMA-problem ??


I have some
problems with a brand new Plextor-drive, PX-W5224TA/T3B, I cannot
mount any CD or burn a CDR or CD-RW, except if I disable DMA with
following command :# hdparm -d0 /dev/hdd , a little bit annoying,
isn't it ?

If I insert a cdrom in the drive the led doesn't go out, it flashes
as usual but it stays green.

It seems to be a DMA-problem or a kernel-bug ???
Its only a supposition, I am a Linux-newbie, and I am looking
for an explanation and a solution ....

By mounting a cdrom I get following error messages :

Jan 11 20:46:00 ishwara kernel: scsi : aborting command due to timeout
: pid 102, scsi0, channel 0, id 1, lun 0 0x28 00 00 00 00 10 00 00 01 00
Jan 11 20:46:00 ishwara kernel: hdd: error waiting for DMA

Error } Jan 11 20:46:00 ishwara kernel: hdd: dma timeout retry:

Jan 11 20:46:07 ishwara kernel: scsi0 channel 0 : resetting for second
half of retries. Jan 11 20:46:07 ishwara kernel: SCSI bus is being reset
for host 0 channel 0. Jan 11 20:46:07 ishwara kernel: hdd: status
timeout: status=0x80 { Busy } Jan 11 20:46:07 ishwara kernel: hdd: drive
not ready for command Jan 11 20:46:07 ishwara kernel: hdd: ATAPI reset

timeout : pid 103, scsi0, channel 0, id 1, lun 0 0x28 00 00 00 00 10 00
rive not ready for command

And then I have a freeze or at least a blocking of the sysem.
I have to reboot.

Could someone give me an explanation of what is happening and a way to
solve the problem .... is this a kernel-bug ? Or an incompatibility
between the motherboard and the drive ??

If you choose to help me, please don't be to esoteric, as I already
said, I am a newbie.

Please, could you Cc all answers to the adress :

My apologizes for my english ....
