The latest 2.6.x kernel doesn't seem to support this controller yet. Does anyone have this working on their machines? Below is the lspci output.

Quote:

0000:05:06.0 RAID bus controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6410 ATA133 RAID controller (rev 06)
Subsystem: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6410 ATA133 RAID controller
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 22
I/O ports at a000
I/O ports at a400 [size=4]
I/O ports at a800 [size=8]
I/O ports at ac00 [size=4]
I/O ports at b000 [size=16]
Capabilities: [c0] Power Management version 2


I heard rumors that it may appear in 2.6.10, but I'm curious if anyone has a patch that I can use now to get it working! :)

Thanks!

You can't use it for RAID yet, but supposedly it sucks anyways. You can just use a software RAID if you want.

To get to function like a regular IDE controller use this kernel patch: http://source.robertk.com/VIA610.267.patch

Yes, it works for 2.6.10

Hope that helps.
