Hello, I bought a 160gb hard drive a few years back, and I never got all of the memory available to me. I only get about 29gb on the whole entire hard drive, and I would really like my money's worth . Sooo, about a month ago, I was told to buy an SATA or Ultra ATA card to get the full potential of my hard drive. I told my father, whom found an Ultra ATA card at Fry's electronics (most of this info is prelude and irrelevant, sorry bout' that)... Now, I have it installed, but I can't find out what drivers/steps etc I need to get it to work on my Zenwalk Linux box. Please help! thanks in advance.

My lspci output:

The kernel in Zenwalk 4.4.1 should support this out of the box, as it is compiled with support for this controller. I can't find any info about it in the configuration of older kernels.
