Hello,
I'm trying to install vlc and it works but the image is jerky (saccadee in
french). I found that dma isn't working but it was working with my older kernel
2.4.2-2(standard with redhat 7.1)! SO i have to chose between DRI and vlc!
I've a Redhat 7.1 linux with updated kernel 2.4.3-12.
I have an AMD athlon 1.4, MSI AMDK7Tpro mainboard
I think (not sure) i have a recent via ide chipset
I have the error
HDIO_SET_DMA failed
with the command
/sbin/hdparm -d1 /dev/hdc
I compiled my kernel to add DMA support but it doesn't work.
What should i do?
Thanks for help,
Fred
