Just to correct this statement -- it seems that I've discovered the
culprit: HD Driver actually expect *explicit call* to XHDOSLimits() so it
can adjust it to the new limits (instead of reading them). Uwe claims this
is the way the XHDI protocol works, I have no clue. I asked him to join
this thread as he might get better answers here.
