ICH8 chipset support?

Sat Jul 22 18:28:33 UTC 2006

I just upgraded my machine at home to a Conroy-ready motherboard - An  
Asus P5B. This particular motherboard has the smallest fraction of  
recognized devices I think I've ever come across. From what I can  
tell, the blame can be placed squarely on the Intel ICH8 chipset that  
supplies almost all of the devices in the system.

USB is working, though it is recognized only generically. The ICH8  
SATA ports do not seem to work properly (thank goodness for the  
JMicro RAID controller - which can be used without RAID). The audio  
subsystem, SMB controller and the Realtek on-board Ethernet aren't  
recognized at all. There's an nVidia PCI Express graphics card in  
there too, but I probably won't even run X on this machine, much less  
3D stuff.

I'll attach the output from pciconf -l and the dmesg.boot. At this  
point, it is up, sort of.

Is there any hope of improving support for this system?
