You should build your own kernel and use the it821x module instead of the pata_it821x module. I am doing this for almost 4 years now and it works ...
snippet from my /usr/src/linux/.config:
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IT821X=m # CONFIG_PATA_IT821X is not set # CONFIG_PATA_IT8213 is not set
I wonder why it821x is not included in ubuntu, maybe it conflicts with pata_it821x (I dunno) but it sure would be nice if it821x could be included.
