Hello. I first apologize for my english, i am not a specialist ;-)
I've got a computer with motherboard foxconn sis6627 MA and sata hard disk. The chipset for sata is sis966 and sis966L. With a lspci command, it appears like an unknow device 1183 (or 1184, 1185, it depends on my bios settings), us shown : 00:00.0 Host bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] Unknown device 0662 (rev 01) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS AGP Port (virtual PCI-to-PCI bridge) 00:02.0 ISA bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] Unknown device 0966 (rev 59) 00:02.5 IDE interface: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 5513 [IDE] (rev 01) 00:02.7 Multimedia audio controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] AC'97 Sound Controller (rev a0) 00:03.0 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 1.0 Controller (rev 0f) 00:03.1 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 1.0 Controller (rev 0f) 00:03.3 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 2.0 Controller 00:05.0 IDE interface: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] Unknown device 1183 (rev 02) 00:06.0 PCI bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] PCI-to-PCI bridge 00:07.0 PCI bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] PCI-to-PCI bridge 00:0e.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

The module is sata_sis also, but not the same as debian's one, it includes the device 1183. I downloaded the source on the sis site and hoped making my own sata_sis.ko file : apt-get install linux-header-mykernelversion build-essentials, then i follow the instructions of the sata_sis.c file author Unfortunately, a file was missing : scsi/scsi_request.h I founded it on internet (i hope it's the good one) and try making again. But make gave me the following message: make -C /lib/modules/2.6.18-4-686/build SUBDIRS=/home/kiti/sa modules make[1]: entrant dans le répertoire « /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.18-4-686 » CC [M] /home/kiti/sa/sata_sis.o In file included from /home/kiti/sa/sata_sis.c:38: /home/kiti/sa/scsi.h: In function 'print_req_sense': /home/kiti/sa/scsi.h:81: warning: implicit declaration of function 'scsi_print_req_sense' /home/kiti/sa/scsi.h:81: warning: 'return' with a value, in function returning void /home/kiti/sa/scsi.h: In function 'print_msg': /home/kiti/sa/scsi.h:97: warning: implicit declaration of function 'scsi_print_msg' /home/kiti/sa/sata_sis.c: At top level: /home/kiti/sa/sata_sis.c:91: error: unknown field 'eh_strategy_handler' specified in initializer /home/kiti/sa/sata_sis.c:91: error: 'ata_scsi_error' undeclared here (not in a function) /home/kiti/sa/sata_sis.c: In function 'sis_init_one': /home/kiti/sa/sata_sis.c:358: error: too few arguments to function 'ata_pci_init_native_mode' /home/kiti/sa/sata_sis.c: At top level: /home/kiti/sa/sata_sis.c:460: fatal error: opening dependency file /home/kiti/sa/.sata_sis.o.d: Permission non accordée compilation terminated. make[2]: *** [/home/kiti/sa/sata_sis.o] Erreur 1 make[1]: *** [_module_/home/kiti/sa] Erreur 2 make[1]: quittant le répertoire « /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.18-4-686 » make: *** [default] Erreur 2 I don't know if sis_request.h is the good one (but why debian doesn't got it ?), i don't known if i got all files to make the sata_sis.ko. Could you help me ? (It may be good idea to include the module in the installer.) Thanks so much, long time seeking, i am a bit tired (and desesparate). T.
