You need to enable DMA on your dvd drive. For example, if your dvd drive is hdc:
hdparm -v /dev/hdc
will tell you if DMA is on.
hdparm -d 1 /dev/hdc
will turn on DMA.
To enable DMA at boot time:
apt-get install hwtools
kwrite /etc/init.d/hwtools
Add this line just above "true" under "hdparm optimization":
hdparm -d 1 /dev/hdc
The above command will then be run to turn on DMA during boot up. There is probably a better way to turn on at boot time, but the above works.
