You mean it failed to patch? On those diffs are patching against to  
RELENG_5 branch. I didn't check my patch again, but it might be not match  
with it anymore if someone recently update ata stuff in RELENG_5. It  
should work fine if you patch it by hand, thought. Current I just pull the  
ata-chipset.c,v 1.85 and ata-pci.h,v 1.33 from 6.0-CURRENT branch and put  
(overwrite) them in my RELENG_5 source and build/install.

NP, good to see the sound works for you. It was hard for me to test,  
because I am deaf. I had to bug my brother and sister by borrow their ears  
when I ran my CD driver with their music CD. They was like 'err, why do  
you need to get the sound fix?' and I told them that I just wanted to add  
it in FreeBSD to have the more hardwares support. :-) Also, I want to see  
my dmesg and pciconf look pretty. :-P

Cheers,
