Comment 1 for bug 57502

I would like to confirm the bug. I am the starter of the above mentioned thread at ubuntuforums.org.
Currently, I am running kernel 2.6.17.9, and still, no progress on the Jmicron detection. I was unsuccessful at installing the 2.6.18 -mm patch, or the 2.6.18-rc4 patch.
Several people mention that giving the parameter "all-generic-ide" to the kernel (at boot) works for Fedora Core, however, it did not work with the Ubuntu 6.06.1 desktop cd.
