UltraDMA problems on ASUS A7V880 Motherboad.
My Gentoo (2.6.10-r6 gentoo-dev-sources) and Slackware (2.6.10 kernel) system cannot detect that my PATA hard disk is compatible with UltraDMA 6:
| Code: | tux mikebela # hdparm -i /dev/hda
/dev/hda:
Model=Maxtor 6E040L0, FwRev=NAR61590, SerialNo=E1B68DEE

Whereas the Knoppix v3.7 (with both 2.4 and 2.6 Kernel) does recognize it and sets the optimal value (!!!):

The Gentoo and Slackware kernel is configured with Device Drivers -> ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL -> VIA82cxxx chipset support. What's the problem?
