How do I get my aic94xx to see sata drives?

How do I get my aic94xx to see sata drives?

[Wakko Warner]

Please CC me.

I've looked around and the only thing I can find was a git repository for
it.  I don't know anything about git.  I just want to get the driver so I
can use the sata drives I have on this controller.

I'm currently using 2.6.22.

hum, it should be working in 2.6.22.  There were some minor fixes and 
changes in 2.6.23 that you might want to try, but overall, we are 
interested in your bug report.

I'm not sending out that header.  Maybe I should with my address?

I currently have 6 sata devices attached to ports 0-2 and 4-6.  The
controller's bios sees them properly.  libata is also loaded.

I'll give 2.6.23 a try tomorrow, I didn't realise it was available already.

Definately does not work in 2.6.22, does work in 2.6.23.  I'm copying stuff
to it right now!
