Status of Serial ATA support

I'm rather amazed at the emails on this list that I found that
helped explain why the SUSE 9.0 for AMD64 won't load, No Serial ATA Support
for the VIA chipset (or any chipset for that matter). What a crushing
appointment, I built this machine specfically to use SUSE 9.0 for AMD 64,
and yes I bought modern hardware like a serial ATA drive. If Linux cannot
support the current hardware generation it will continue to remain
marginalized on the desktop bigtime. So when can I expect Serial ATA support
(I will not go to last generation hardware) or did I just waste my money on
this thing? So much for the easy installation, what a joke.

Signed very frustrated with SUSE 9.0 for AMD 64
