I don't think this is a problem. I have a similar card in my home PC, and
it prints the same thing (re: not 100% native mode). Here is an excerpt
from my PC's boot messages running 2.4.19:

    Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver Revision: 6.31
    ide: Assuming 33MHz system bus speed for PIO modes; override with idebus=xx
    PDC20267: IDE controller on PCI bus 02 dev 08
    PCI: Found IRQ 10 for device 02:01.0
    PDC20267: chipset revision 2
    PDC20267: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later
    PDC20267: (U)DMA Burst Bit ENABLED Primary PCI Mode Secondary PCI Mode.
	ide0: BM-DMA at 0xa400-0xa407, BIOS settings: hda:pio, hdb:pio
	ide1: BM-DMA at 0xa408-0xa40f, BIOS settings: hdc:pio, hdd:pio

All of my hard drives are on this card, so I know it works just fine (I
use ide=reverse so that my hard drives start with hda. I keep my CD and
DVD drives on the motherboard IDE buses).
