I noticed from searching the mailing list archives that busmastering DMA
is supported on Intel chipsets. I'm currently using 3.0 at home, and I get
the following information from my dmesg(1):

..
ide_pci0: <VIA 82C586x (Apollo) Bus-master IDE controller> rev 0x06 on
pci0.7.1
..

Does this mean that bus-mastering DMA is being used? how can I turn it on
if not? does a later version support the VIA Apollo? (it's actually an
Apollo Pro 82C591 on a Slot1 board)
