Hi All,
Is anyone looking at supporting the Intel ICH2-M IDE controller?
This controller is basically the same as the ICH2 controller except it has
extra powermanagment features as it's the for portable computers (hence
the M=mobile). I'm currently using the attached patch which runs
flawlessly on my laptop. However, I'm just an amature code hacker and
hence can't guarentee I haven't missed something between the chipsets.
The other question I have is why in ata-dma.c is there the fall through to
the ICH chipset? It seems to prevent any drive actually using ATA100/UDMA5
features.
Cheers,
