Have you checked if DMA works in that memory space? Does it?

I made a similar program for DOS to enable UMB areas with Triton. But the
problem was that i couldn't find any way to enable DMA access in the UMB
memory.

And about all these patches in this mailinglist... do i have to have some
specific kernel (most recent 2.1.x?) or could i patch my 2.0.0?
