Adaptec 1210SA (SiL3112)

[Dale Blount]

I've given up on the Highpoint Rocket 1540 card:

http://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg209799.html (lklm thread).

I contacted HPT's tech support and they mentioned there isn't a driver
available yet (even though it says "Linux Supported!" right on the
box...).  They don't know when it will be released and noted it will be
at least partially binary.

So I've moved on to the Adaptec card (only card I could find with a SiL
chipset).  I'd rather use a 3114 card as I need 4 ports, but I couldn't
find any info on support/cards using that chipset.

The current problem is that the SiL3112 keeps throwing 'lost interrupt'
messages.  I've tried DMA off/on all with no luck.  Here is the relevant
output from dmesg:

Is there anything else I can do to get this card working?  Or another
sata card *verified* working under 2.4.2x?

Thanks,
