| |
Hi.
I resign to post the question directly here after hours of vain searching on other sources of information. If the question has already been answered hundreds of times, I am *really* sorry about the mess... (I also tried to check on the latest development version, but failed at booting the system at all).
I would like to know if there is a particular reason that forbids audio extraction/writing from/of CDs using UDMA (as opposed to PIO) when using the ide-scsi driver.
Apparently the problem seems not to be such an issue as it seems that very few people extract audio data from CDs and/or write audio CDs. But still...
I already applied a patch from akpm to make audio extraction use DMA with the ide-cd driver. It works very fine for me and I miss the feature really badly on the ide-scsi driver.
If there are some SCSI gurus here willing to enlight me on this specific issue, I will be very thankful. =)
Regards,
Ignacy Gawedzki
