I'm having problems enabling DMA for my PATA HD.

Of course, I'm super user. Nothing is printed in dmesg.

I'm on linux-2.6.16 and motherboard is Fujitsu Siemens D1561 with an
ICH5. I also have a SATA hd in the computer and this only happens when
the SATA hd is there. If I remove the SATA HD, then I can enable DMA
for the PATA hd.

Disabled combined mode in BIOS.
