With no success, because there wasn't a driver. Finally I could test the chipset with 2.4.26-pre2 successfully. But I wanted to get support for 2.6.x - so i wrote an email to ITE's support staff yesterday (itesupport@ite.com.tw). Today (after 16hours - :-) ) I got a response with the following: -----snip----- Dear Sir, Please visit our web site for downloading the newest driver for kernel 2.6.x. http://www.ite.com.tw/productInfo/Download.html#IT8212 ATA133 Controller Best Regards, -----snip----- You guys with this chipset onboard, please test these drivers and report problems to itesupport@ite.com.tw . The drivers are available from the link above as source or binary drivers. -- A pessimist is never disappointed. -- Unknown
