i've got a SATA DVD drive in this machine and it doesn't get recognized in the
dmesg:

pciide0 at pci1 dev 11 function 0 "CMD Technology SiI3112 SATA" rev 0x02: DMA
pciide0: using irq 11 for native-PCI interrupt
pciide0: port 0: device present, speed: 1.5Gb/s
wd0 at pciide0 channel 0 drive 0: <ST3200822AS>
wd0: 16-sector PIO, LBA48, 190782MB, 390721968 sectors
wd0(pciide0:0:0): using BIOS timings, Ultra-DMA mode 6
VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV
pciide0: port 1: device present, speed: 1.5Gb/s
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
pciide1 at pci0 dev 9 function 0 "NVIDIA nForce2 IDE" rev 0xa2: DMA, channel 0
configured to compatibility, channel 1 configured to compatibility
wd1 at pciide1 channel 0 drive 0: <Maxtor 6L300R0>
wd1: 16-sector PIO, LBA48, 286188MB, 586114704 sectors
wd1(pciide1:0:0): using PIO mode 4, Ultra-DMA mode 6
pciide1: channel 1 disabled (no drives)

it seems to detect that a device is present, but not any more than that.

i am to understand that SATA DVD/CD-ROM drives are relatively rare. i have a
plextor 712-SA or something like that.
