Rawhide seems a little jittery of late and I'm wondering whether recent changes to hardware detection is causing issues. As an example, the install phase of yum leaves my mouse very hard to use and sees other processes stammering. Not the experience I'm used to in the past. I've started by trying to address why my modern HDD is running with dma off. Each time I try to set the drive to use dma it fails saying the operation is not permitted. I'm doing the following: [root@localhost ~]# hdparm /dev/hda /dev/hda: multcount = 16 (on) IO_support = 0 (default 16-bit) unmaskirq = 0 (off) using_dma = 0 (off) keepsettings = 0 (off) readonly = 0 (off) readahead = 256 (on) geometry = 65535/16/63, sectors = 195371568, start = 0 [root@localhost ~]# hdparm -d1 /dev/hda /dev/hda: setting using_dma to 1 (on) HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted using_dma = 0 (off) This in an a brand new dell laptop with a Fujitsu drive that supports UltraDMA. Sorry if this seems like a support questions but I'm unable to try this on older FCs and I'm presuming that it has something to do with hardware changes.
