    Thats odd, it doesn't seem to include any useful model/version information. Mine gives:

    00:11.1 IDE interface: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT82C586/B/686A/B PIPC Bus Master

    The module for VIA 82Cxxx is built into the bf24 kernel, so that works for me. However, it is the only VIA module I am aware of. Is your board very new?

    Someone else mentioned DMA was not available in bf24. This is not true. It works for supported chipsets.
