From a news-item at VGR.com it appears that the current Articia-northbridges might still have DMA-related problems:
"Mr. S.W. who sends over screen shots of newer AmigaOne 800mhz G4 hardware, has sent over 2 screen shots of the new A1 with G4 running 'amigaone xe/g4 7451 800mhz, excalibur radeon 9000 pro 64mb ddr ram, valueram kvr133x72rc3/256 kingston'. He wants to know '.. if other aone users have that problem as well..', 'it never outputs the same checksum with dma enabled when testing an iso file which is larger than the swap space used'
You can see the Radeon 9000 Pro screen shots here: DMA On & DMA Off."

Articia: Still DMA-problems? : Comment 1 of 122 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Anonymous on 20-May-2003 09:39 GMT | 1) Mister S.W? Normally VGR shows full names.
2) Why ask at VGR (1):(you know the site that is not really independant in this case)? When there's an AmigaONE mailinglist. I checked and the question didn't show up there
3) Why ask at VGR (2): There is no possibility to reply the author of the question because there is no comments section; there's no email adres in the posting.
4) And who says it's an AmigaONE? Just because the prompt says so?
5) Someone already mentioned the timing, there was positive news about AmigaOS4
yesterday, so you can start counting the hours when some negative news would hit the news sites.
But anyway. I never heard of any data corruption with the AmigaONE XE ( and believe if there is any then you will notice a hell lot more then only a failing CRC) so I guess I can answer this question for you: No you're the only one. |
