    SubjectALI TX-II support ?

    Hello.

    I've just booted my new shiny 2.2.2 (looking forward to seeing new Alan patches ;)) and
    I've just remembered I can't get UDMA enabled on my ALI TX-II(Pro!?) BXcell 100 motherboard...
    all I get is:

    PCI_IDE: unknown IDE controller on PCI bus 00 device 78, VID=10b9, DID=5229
    PCI_IDE: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later
    PCI_IDE: simplex device: DMA disabled
    ide0: PCI_IDE Bus-Master DMA disabled (BIOS)
    PCI_IDE: simplex device: DMA disabled
    ide1: PCI_IDE Bus-Master DMA disabled (BIOS)
    hda: FUJITSU MPC3043AT, ATA DISK drive
    hdc: TOSHIBA CD-ROM XM-6402B, ATAPI CDROM drive

    Yikes! It seems like I have no support for my chipset in the linux kernel :( Does anyone know
    some patches available in order to use my udma fujitsu drive? The relevant pci devices are:

    [root@ns]:~# cat /proc/pci
    PCI devices found:
    Bus 0, device 0, function 0:
    Host bridge: Acer Labs Unknown device (rev 5).
    Vendor id=10b9. Device id=1621.
    Slow devsel. Master Capable. No bursts.
    Prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xe0000000 [0xe0000008].
    Bus 0, device 1, function 0:
    PCI bridge: Acer Labs Unknown device (rev 1).
    Vendor id=10b9. Device id=5247.
    Fast devsel. Master Capable. No bursts. Min Gnt=7.
    Bus 0, device 7, function 0:
    ISA bridge: Acer Labs M1533 Aladdin IV (rev 180).
    Medium devsel. Master Capable. No bursts.
    Bus 0, device 15, function 0:
    IDE interface: Acer Labs M5229 TXpro (rev 32).
    Medium devsel. Fast back-to-back capable. Master Capable. Latency=32. Min Gnt=2.Max Lat=4.
    I/O at 0xffa0 [0xffa1].

    [root@ns]:~# hdparm -Tt /dev/hda

    /dev/hda:
    Timing buffer-cache reads: 64 MB in 1.65 seconds =38.79 MB/sec
    Timing buffered disk reads: 32 MB in 6.03 seconds = 5.31 MB/sec
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^<- pathetic, ain't it? :(

    I've digged into my AMI BIOS ( a lousy text one) and I found no UDMA enabling options, but
    at startup my HDD is detected as UDMA drive...

    If anyone can help, please do...

    Stefan
