Hi Robert,

Thanks for your reply.  I'm not sure if the kernel config has changed as I
am using the stock ubuntu kernels.  Perhaps I should log a bug with
ubuntu.  If it helps, the pata_sil680 module is loaded (visible in
/proc/modules) when I boot either kernel, it just doesn't detect my 750GB
drive in the 2.6.24 based kernel.
