It'll be used in Linux and I can't find any mention on-line of anybody using a VT6421A (not just a VT6421) with Linux. The sata_via.c module looks like the place it'd be supported if it was but there's no mention. Do you know if I can use this chipset in Linux or if I should avoid it? thank you very much, Greg
