Summary: missing Via VT8251 chipset driver missing in newer
kernels
Product: SCSI Drivers
Version: 2.5
Kernel Version: >2.6.29.x
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: blocking
Priority: P1
Component: Other
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Regression: No

Driver for VT8251 sata controllers is missing in kernel >2.6.29.x.

Earlier kernels versions used in Fedora Core 4,5,6 and the contemporary kernels used in other distros were detecting it easily but the latest release no longer detect it.

While manually compiling latest kernels in gentoo and fedora I found the drivers to detect sata controllers were missing.
