Googling revealed, that the SATA-ports in the VT8251 _should_ be AHCI-compliant and therefor supported by Linux.
vt8251 *is* ahci-compliant, and in bios there is option to set up sata controller as ide, or ahci. But no matter what you set, vt8251/sata is not recognised with standard 2.6.15 kernel... But there is unofficial patch/mod for ahci.c, and right now I'm testing it. BTW, I have read on via forum that kernel-dev's refused to include this patch in official kernel tree, because there is something peculiar about it (some fix they do not like). BTW, it's made by via and modified by some developers... Jarry -- [email protected] mailing list
