"easily fixed" ? Says who ? Those who said :
- there is no bug.
- thats what you get when you buy your firmware.
-"we" fixed the bug.
- it's all in the VIA-SB, and you have to have good contact with MAI to info about it.
(don't ask me where the sense in that one is)
- it doesn't affect SCSI, cos it is in the VIA.
- offcourse it affects SCSI, cos it's a PCI-prob (only one day later).
- we fixed the bug in the newest kernel.
- we fixed the bug in the newest UBoot.
- we fixed the bug in the newest kernel.
- OS4 won't be affected, cos we do the drivers with it in mind (but sofar noone has seen that).
- VIA is so tight with info on that (how does work with the 4th statement).
- We are not interested in fixing it in linux.
Did I miss one ?
But now, we have the 4th year of the ArticiaS, and noone, except bPlan
maneged to get DMA working reliable, noone except Eyetech is planning to
sell ArticiaS-based HW.
Doesn't sound as it was easily fixed, except you meant fixing it by turning
off DMA, which is offcourse fairly easy :-D
