ik heb al meermalen het tegendeel geroepen. ik kan hier op willekeurig
welke SUS 9.0/1/2 set (ik praat over een 17 tal machines, nee niet hir
thuis) _allemaal_ zonder problemen een CD en/of DVD bakken. out of the
box, alleen ff DMA aangezet.

So read the thread, it's been explained there several times. It's how
the whole thread started.

The case in a nutshell is that you say you use force for ATAPI driver
and burning runs slow because it doesn't use DMA. So I tell you that you
should not use the ATAPI driver, exactly _because it doesn't use DMA_. I
go on to say that if you don't know what you are doing, why are you
forcing the ATAPI driver? So now you tell me you don't do default, what
on earth does that mean? You're to elite to use the default? If you
force something else than the default you're expected to know what you
are doing, end of story.

And read up on netiquette, it's bad style to cc a public list on a
private mail. I find nothing in the above mail that's insulting to you
from my side, all I see is that you are refusing to listen to why you
had problems with DMA burning.

dus om nou te zeggen dat jij de juiste afslag genomen hebt... in mijn
ogen niet. 

ik kan succesvol, zonder gedoe, andere "betere" drivers et al gewoon
doen wat ik wil, met een bijzonder gemeleerd (sp?) gezelschap aan computers,
inclusief dat &^*&(% laptop ding van Fujitsu-Siemens.
