[4294673.140000] scsi1 : sata_uli
And the mobo is a ULI based one. there is a Jmicron sata2 controller on it as well, but it is not supported. only the southbridge (uli) sata ports are supported in linux as far as i can tell. I am 100% positive that sata_uli is the correct module for the sata1 ports on the motherboard, it is what i used in gentoo as well as what comes up in ubuntu. i'm not sure why debian etch had issues with it. maybe there are patches to correct the issue.
i have to say, this is the best response i've gotten from any userbase thus far. when i posted bugs for gentoo they just called me stupid...

OK...the problem is narrowed down.

We need to cofnirm this hypothesis....Do you have any indication in
the Ubuntu dmesg output that the above device is really the one
requiring the sata_uli module?
