----- Original Message ----- This topic serves to inform you of the
status of real support for the VIA VT8251. In short, full support for
the chipset and all features will be in Linux-2.6.18. But if you'd
like to use it now, read on for details..
PATA | Driver name: blk_dev_via82cxxx:
a.. fully supported in Linux-2.6.15 and onwards.
SATA | Driver name: scsi_ahci_sata:
a.. will be fully* supported in Linux-2.6.18 and onwards.
a.. and patches are available for Linux-2.6.15, 2.6.16 and 2.6.17
*: There is no support for NCQ, unfortunately, as the VT8251 does not
implement the AHCI specification correctly. Until VIA tells us how
exactly they screwed up (so we may work around the issue), this
situation is not likely to change.
Audio: AC'97 | Driver name: snd_via82xx:
a.. fully supported in Linux-2.6.17 (and ALSA 1.0.12rc1) and onwards.
a.. For older kernels this patch is available.
Audio: Intel HDA | Driver name: snd_hda_intel:
a.. fully supported in Linux-2.6.15 (and ALSA-1.0.8) and onwards.
When using the drivers listed above, you will not need to install any
packages, proprietary or otherwise, provided by VIA or your
motherboard manufacturer. In fact, I would recommend against doing so.
A couple of credits:
a.. PATA DMA support was sent to the libata maintainer independently
by VIA and Daniel Drake. These patches utilise the 82Cxxx driver
written by Vojtech Pavlik(SUSE), based upon the work of Michel Aubry,
Jeff Garzik (Red Hat) and Andre Hedrick.
a.. SATA support was initially provided by VIA. The patch has been
modified by Geoff Rivell for 2.6.15.1, by Cristian Olar for 2.6.16,
and reworked for inclusion in the mainline kernel by yours truly
(Bastiaan Jacques).
a.. AC'97 support has been added by yours truly. This is based upon
the work by Jaroslav Kysela (SUSE) and Tjeerd Mulder (Fujitsu-Siemens).
a.. Intel HDA support was written by Takashi Iwai (SUSE).
I'll try to keep this post updated. Please send me a private message
if you'd like something changed or added.
