PCI device 1283:8212 (Integrated Technology Express, Inc.)

My friend recently got an ATA133 card with this chipset on it. The full proc/pci entry looks like:

    RAID bus controller: PCI device 1283:8212 (Integrated Technology Express, Inc.) (rev 17).
      IRQ 10.
      Master Capable.  No bursts.  Min Gnt=8.Max Lat=8.
      I/O at 0xdcd8 [0xdcdf].
      I/O at 0xdcd0 [0xdcd3].
      I/O at 0xdcc0 [0xdcc7].
      I/O at 0xdcb8 [0xdcbb].
      I/O at 0xdca0 [0xdcaf].

If you want to use this under linux you need to compile in the driver as detailed under the title IT8212F
ATA133 RAID Controller on this page. To compile up the driver you need to enable scsi in your kernel and link /usr/src/linux-2.4 (or linux-2.6 depending on kernel version) to wherever your linux source tree is. If you are using modules remember to modprobe both scsi and sd_mod.

You then put the created iteraid.o file into

/lib/modules/kernel-version/kernel/drivers/ide/pci/

making directories if you have to.
