Rob, thanks, but your suggestion comes right out of the doc's, which
I've read more than once already. As I said, DMA is enabled on my
drive: if it weren't, Xine and Ogle would probably play funny too.
Here's my output from hdparm (probably just like yours):
/dev/hdd:
HDIO_GET_MULTCOUNT failed: Invalid argument
I/O support = 1 (32-bit)
unmaskirq = 1 (on)
using_dma = 1 (on)
keepsettings = 0 (off)
HDIO_GET_NOWERR failed: Invalid argument
readonly = 1 (on)
readahead = 8 (on)
HDIO_GETGEO failed: Invalid argument
busstate = 1 (on)
HDIO_GET_ACOUSTIC failed: Invalid argument
Sergei, as I've mentioned, I've tried the -cache option already, using
several different values from 256 up to 20000. The result is always the
same, which suggests to me this is a problem in the video output chain,
not the IDE read process.
Any other ideas? Sounds like I should make a bug report, but I'm
hesitant about that, because there are really two separate issues here,
DVD video output and the GL modules.
