Michel, try running lspci and see what IDE interface you're using/ I'd guess that it's Intel 82801FBM controller. You might want to CC yourself in on this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=166053 I suspect that this is going to affect a whole load of new laptop users as it seems quite a few laptops are using the Intel chipset in question.
