2.6.17.  I am running Debian unstable.  The package was retrieved
through the regular Debian mechanism (apt-get from
debian.yorku.ca).

I believe it was 2.6.16.  The issue with via82cxxx loading after
ide_generic must have been lingering for a long time (since 2.6.14
or earlier).

>From what I understood, the current note was about ide_generic not
being loaded by the most recent kernels.  The work-around
suggested in the note is quite opposite to my observations, but I
didn't go into inner workings of the ram disk to find the exact
mechanism of discovering required modules.
