Hi,
  I got the DX5150 up and running today, thanks all for your help!
  This is how I did it:

  Booted into expert mode with Len Sorensens sarge ISO, modprobed ahci,
  sata_sil and sd_mod. By now it sees the disk. Loaded ide-cd and
ide-generic and it sees the cdrom. Those weren't loaded automagically and that's probably why the installer hung (I think). Switch back to the
  installer and continue as usual. No problems at all, except for some
  trouble with XFree, it couldn't detect the graphics card, so I had to
  use the vesa driver. I works for me.

  Again, thanks all.

  Andreas

  PS. Here's the lspci output:

Try man update-pciids

Unfortunately I couldn't get 'update-pciids' to work. It complained
about a compressed file and I have gzip and bzip2 installed.

(I am running Sarge i386 but soon I'll be running AMD64 :-))
