yes, i found that as well. the problem is that they provide binary
driver for suse, fc, rhel, but not for debian.

the only part that seems to be applicable in my case is:

*Pre-compiled Linux kernels with driver support for the SiIxxxx SATA
*controller chips can be found on the Linux ATA development site:
*http://kernel.org/. You must use a kernel version of 2.4.18-14 or later
*to have SATA support for the SiI3x12. More recent kernel support
*SiI3114, SiI3124, and SiI3132. If your distribution already uses a
*current kernel , please use the SiIxxxx driver included with the
*dsitribution.
i have 2.6.15 from kernel.org, there is BLK_DEV_SIIMAGE, but supports
only 3112. so it seems to be in contradiction with the text above...

i went through the config, but didn't find anything else apart from the
BLK_DEV_SIIMAGE :( maybe the name is completely different...

any hints? thanks in advance,
