Try only to realise the truth : Comment 190 of 335 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Amon_Re on 05-Jul-2004 19:27 GMT | In reply to Comment 186 (Johan Rönnblom): BUT YOU DO NOT KNOW THIS FOR A FACT <PERIOD>
The closest we've ever been able to assess on ann.lu was that the ArticiaS doesn't adhire to the PCI specs (a conversation between me & Nate iirc), there has never been any evidence that the hardware is faulty, and that DMA is impossible, on the contrary, we've heard reasons why it doesn't work (various reasons, including the VIA southbridge, wich is a known pain in the ass and probably did account for some part of the problem), and why it's bloody hard to get it going into linux (or to be more precise, the 2.4 series kernel)
With the limited amount of solid information we have it is IMPOSSIBLE to come to a conclusion that is 100% based on available, verifyable facts.
If DMA drivers work in AOS4, then clearly the hardware is not broken, and if with broken you mean not compliant to some spec sheet, change the wordings, because i'm getting bloody hell tired of your crap. |
