Hi Alan! Great things happened!

I could sweare, that a few weeks ago nothing worked, neither with the nat=
ive=20
IDE drivers nor with PDC20268 options. (That kernel was 2.4.19-pa14). Now=
 it=20
only doesn't work with the special IDE options for this card. Is there a=20
roadmap to fix that prolem? ;-)

Thanks to all who helped me!
