Greetings: This is Shane.
We have four patches for AMD/ATI SB700, and we will full support SB700 until 2.6.23-rc1. The four patches have been accepted by kernel org and the applied kernel version are listed as below: 1.SMBus device ID 2.6.23-rc1 Upstream commit: http://khali.linux-fr.org/devel/linux-2.6/jdelvare-i2c/i2c-piix4-add-ATI -SB700-support.patch 2.IDE device ID 2.6.22 Upstream commit: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commi t;h=6c6a2a8d201b4f8fd54167802da5ddbe08abd744 3.SATA device ID 2.6.22 Upstream commit: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commi t;h=2bcfdde6767f2f07891d2753c25220012fe5e6d2 4.Combined mode 2.6.22 Upstream commit: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commi t;h=823777181b4c0200923dcb026efa5b37f55c0ecf Because the patch for SMBus device ID is sent after the merge window for 2.6.22, and as a result it is queued for the next kernel version: 2.6.23. it will be merged in Linus' tree between 2.6.22 (final) and 2.6.23-rc1. Our request here is: Would you please add these four SB700 patches into the kernel of Debian under development? If next Debian release(4.1?) will use the linux kernel after 2.6.23-rc1, then that's good and you may discard this mail. Otherwise if it will use the kernel older than 2.6.23-rc1, please apply these four patches into it manually. Thanks Best Regards Shane
