I've just installed this patch to a 2.6.19 kernel (running FC6). Wants testing... so test and report Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@xxxxxxxxxx> --- linux.vanilla-2.6.19-rc6-mm1/drivers/ata/sata_via.c 2006-11-24 13:58:05.000000000 +0000 +++ linux-2.6.19-rc6-mm1/drivers/ata/sata_via.c 2006-12-04 14:57:34.719099648 +0000 I have a Maxtor 320GB PATA drive connected to the PATA port of a via 6421 based card. I can see a SATA drive if I connect it to the SATA ports, but I can't see the PATA one using the unpatched driver. Once I patch the driver and rebuild, I can still see the SATA drives if connected, but there is still no PATA drive showing. Inserting the module gives the following messages.

(Date: Mon, 4 Dec 2006 15:21:05 +0000). I've looked thru the archives, and can't find anything in there, and the only other patch that I can find is the VIA supplied one, which of course doesn't compile.
