I've just installed this patch to a 2.6.19 kernel (running FC6).

Wants testing... so test and report

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.

Is there a more up to date patch than the one Alan posted in Dec? (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.

Thanks
