[Bug 57502] Re: JMicron PATA/SATA Controller does not work

[steviant]

Was this problem ever fixed in Dapper or has canonical abandoned it's so
called "Long Term Service" release already? I have a hard drive with
dapper installed which has been extracted from a machine that has died.

We're unable to get a desktop board which doesn't use the jmicron
controller, so I'm not able to use anything else.

I have read this entire thread and I'm no more enlightened than when I
started about whether this problem has been fixed for Dapper, or how to
apply any such fix.

Has this problem been fixed in dapper?

Can someone explain in terms that a normal human being can understand
how to install these fixes without having to recompile a new kernel or
install a new operating system?
