looking through the sources version of the driver, it appears that the problems i was worried about have been addressed. i don't have hardware with a discontiguous set of ports with which to test. the most likely source of this problem would be if the kernel recognizes the same ports as sata and legacy ide. that could be due to a bios bug. but i'm just guessing. do you get any messages from the ide driver? > And also, for some reason, it takes a while to echo on the screen what > I write on the keyboard.
