96 has worked well here, no weird crap happening to the burner in TAO or DAO
mode using cdrecord, and DAO recording of music CDs using cdrdao. lspci
-v -v attached, just in case it is useful for something.

The default was 32, which definately caused trouble with VIA's utter shitty
PCI implementation.

Kernel is still 2.4.18, though.

Screwed up, ain't it? The nvidia drivers do that too in my machine, and I
just gave up setpci'ng it back to a proper number.
