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 41 of 122 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Alkis Tsapanidis on 20-May-2003 15:29 GMT | In reply to Comment 40 (Leki): 1) There's a CONVERSATION here, *NOT* a flamewar... YOU are about to start a
flamewar...
2) "Bill Buck: remeber folks, theres no mai without april and G3 is faster than G4."
You can be sued for puting word in people's mouths... That's NOT what he said.
He said that a G3 *SYSTEM* is faster than a G4 *SYSTEM* in practice.
This doesn't have to do with CPU speed, it's well known that the G4 is faster.
And about "there's no April without Mai"... Prove the opposite... With the old
Articia, the April was the ONLY perfectly working fix. With the new one, we'll
see when the boards mature. |
