USE is just one of many variables in make.conf. The one I was referring to is CFLAGS. Also check the CHOST flag is correct.
Is there a reason why you are trying to use the raid function on this card - my understanding its purely a remapping under the control of a driver in windows and in linux, software raid is more efficient and flexible? I am using raid0 on the motherboard ports, and when I set this up (~ two years ago under mandrake on another MB and still going under gentoo) and it was reccomended then to run (it was a hpt controller) any winraid card in ide mode and use softraid. Use the silraid, and you lose that option, and as far as I can see, gain nothing unless the disks are required to be readable under a dual boot win/lin system.
