Hello,
I get deadlock soon after boot with 2.4.3-ac7 with PDC20265/VIA when booting

parameter. Motherboard is ASUS A7V133 with Duron/800.
Another problem is aic7xxx driver, the system as Adaptec 2930UC SCSI card
with HP's 24 GB

This patch supplies seventeen more missing entries for the

This particular motherboard is an ASUS CUV4X-DLS, the chipset is a
VIA694XDP, the IDE chipset however is a VIA686b.
I've seen this in all the kernels I've tried with the "ac" patches.
Any kernel I've tried that are NOT SMP work fine.
