+
+<para> This page displays information about the <acronym>DMA</acronym>
+(Direct Memory Access) Channels.  A <acronym>DMA</acronym> channel is a
+direct connection that allows devices to transfer data to and from
+memory without going through the processor. Typically, i386-architecture
+systems (<acronym>PC</acronym>'s) have eight <acronym>DMA</acronym>
+channels (0-7).  </para>
+
+<note> <para> The exact information displayed is system-dependent.  On
+some systems, <acronym>DMA</acronym> Channel information cannot be
+displayed yet.  </para> </note>
+
+<para> On &Linux;, this information is read from <filename
+class="devicefile">/proc/dma</filename>, which is only available if the
+<filename class="directory">/proc</filename> pseudo-filesystem is
+compiled into the kernel.  </para>
+
+<para> A list of all currently-registered (<acronym>ISA</acronym> bus)
+<acronym>DMA</acronym> channels that are in use is shown. The first
+column shows the <acronym>DMA</acronym> channel, and the second column
+shows the device which uses that channel.  </para>
+
+<para>
+Unused <acronym>DMA</acronym> channels are not listed.
