Just tried kernel 2.6.7-1.471.. and it's working perfectly for me (no weirdness with the quiet and rhgb options, and acpi is working fine for me again)... other than this device name change that popped up a couple of builds ago... Are the sata_via devices officially being renamed again?.. is anyone else experiencing this? (does anyone else care?... should I?)

There is one thing I noticed which is not that benign in this change. Namely SMART was working fine with /dev/hde but one gets "device not supported" with the same disk(s) if this is /dev/sda. Other than that there is a minor matter of editing swap devices in /etc/fstab; it is possible to have entries for both variants but then you will always get some, harmless, complaints while booting. This assumes, of course, that you are mounting by label (or UUID).
