Will the FAQ also state DMA bug is a "feature" and not a bug? ;)

Hi dammy

i suppose that you are speaking about AOne under "some" Linux installation . . . right?

On AOne under AOS4, there aren't DMA related problems!


Sure,  you don't use DMA, there isn't much of a problem, now is there. ;)

Krono, the DMA bug is something easily fixed with software. Linux will eventualy have a fix for it, such as when AmigaOS4 is released a fix will also be present. But i know people have told you this before, so i dont know why you keep harping on about it!


Since the Teron has been sold as a linux solution, why hasn't someone been able to write a linux DMA fix?  Hyperion doesn't want to deal with, OK, but the PPC Linux folks out there usually don't wait on others to do the work.  Chipset is what, four years old, and there isn't a fix in sight, is there?  Artica-P may fix the DMA bug, but for right now, Amiga1 have this bug and fair warning should be given to those buying it.

BTW, Opteron 140 with mobo is under $400 with shipping in the US.  :-D
