I'm using the EIO 8401H (non-raid) IDE card (InnoVision). This uses an 
ITE 8212 chip. The supplied drivers were only for older versions of 
Linux but their helpdesk pointed me to the ITE website for drivers where 
I took the RH9 source (note: source code available) version and 
recompiled. I now have a nice working card. The drivers are actively 
being developed as there is a version for 2.6 kernels.
