Hi,

I've been using two Promise PDC20269 cards for almost a year now in my system.
The cards are U133, but when the kernel boots up, I see the message that all
the drives are operating in pio mode. All the drives are U133 drives, and
they are shown as operating in DMA mode when I put them on another
controller.

I've noticed this deficiency with vanilla linux-2.4.19 through linux-2.4.21,
linux-2.4.22-ac4 as well as 2.6.0-test6-mm4...

Is there a patch to the 2.4 kernels availible to enable this support? Is this
problem being addressed? Is there any way I can help out?

Thanks,
Jeremy
