I have the same chipset-based card in my machine (debian etch) and i had
a load of trouble with this. The semi-official module never properly
compiled and treated the ide as a scsi bus. A much much better way is to
compile your own kernel with the ac7 patch applied and it has modules
that access it as a proper ide device and everything :-)
Unfortunately, I didn't bookmark the couple of sites that gave a good
step-by-step walk through but a quick google reveals many more sites
that should be just as much help.
