Dennis, could you possibly post the "hdparm -v" output too?

Your wish is my command:

/dev/hda:

 multcount    = 16 (on)
 IO_support   =  1 (32-bit)
 unmaskirq    =  1 (on)
 using_dma    =  0 (off)
 keepsettings =  0 (off)
 readonly     =  0 (off)
 readahead    =  8 (on)

geometry = 3738/255/63, sectors = 60058656, start = 0

And while we're at it:

# /sbin/hdparm -d1 /dev/hda

/dev/hda:
setting using_dma to 1 (on)
HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
using_dma = 0 (off)
