I hate to spam the list with this, but Andre's site is kinda slim on
docs...

I have a Tekram Mobo, with the VIA Apollo Pro chipset. This is reported
to be able to do UDMA66. The BIOS reports that it has set the secondary
disk on the primary controller to UDMA66. But when I boot I get:

Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver Revision: 6.30
ide: Assuming 25MHz system bus speed for PIO modes
VP_IDE: IDE controller on PCI bus 00 dev 39
VP_IDE: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later
VT 82C691 Apollo Pro
 Chipset Core ATA-66
Split FIFO Configuration: 8 Primary buffers, threshold = 1/2
                           8 Second. buffers, threshold = 1/2
    ide0: BM-DMA at 0xe000-0xe007, BIOS settings: hda:DMA, hdb:DMA
ide0: VIA Bus-Master (U)DMA Timing Config Success
    ide1: BM-DMA at 0xe008-0xe00f, BIOS settings: hdc:DMA, hdd:DMA
ide1: VIA Bus-Master (U)DMA Timing Config Success
hda: Maxtor 90680D4, ATA DISK drive
hdb: Maxtor 90650U2, ATA DISK drive
hdc: Memorex CRW-1622, ATAPI CDROM drive
hdd: FX240S, ATAPI CDROM drive
ide0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq 14
ide1 at 0x170-0x177,0x376 on irq 15
hda: Maxtor 90680D4, 6485MB w/256kB Cache, CHS=826/255/63, UDMA(33)
hdb: Maxtor 90650U2, 6149MB w/2048kB Cache, CHS=784/255/63
Floppy drive(s): fd0 is 1.44M
FDC 0 is a post-1991 82077
Partition check:
 hda: hda1 hda2 hda3
 hdb: hdb1 hdb2

I am using 2.2.15 w/ide.2.2.15.20000509.patch applied. The idebus=XX
parameter has been set to 'idebus=25' as my BIOS lists 'default',
66/33Mhz, 75/37Mhz, 83/41Mhz and I have it set on 'Default' still. So
how can you tell if you are doing UDMA66? Shouldn't it print something
like 'hdb: Maxtor 90650U2, 6149MB w/2048kB Cache, CHS=784/255/63,
UDMA(66)'?

Oh, the exact model of Tekram board is P6Pro-A+. If I really missed
something, please feel free to advise on my needing to RTFM. Just make
sure to point me at the right FM. :)

Thanks,
Erick
