Give the patch on zeniv.linux.org.uk/~alan/IDE a go in that case and let

I noticed one hunk failed with 2.6.17-rc4 when using
patch-2.6.17-rc3-ide2.gz

It was only the version string so I should be ok. As I said, if it blows up

I attempted to patch Jeff's libata1 over top of this, it failed miserably.
