VT6421L SATA PCI Card

I have a SATA/ATA PCI card with the VIA VT6421L chipset. I'm running Mandrake Linux 10.1. I'm unable to get the drivers from VIA's site to work, here's what I get when using the console:

I'm quite new to Linux, so any help is greatly appreciated. I believe the card itself is a Syba card. Cheap, yes. Haha. It works in Windows XP, and shows up as an unknown device on here.

Okay, I switched to SuSE 10.1. It's recognized, and it can read my hard drive that's hooked up to the card, but I'm not sure how I would go about mounting it.

It's showing up under /dev/sda1 and sda2. I'm not quite sure how to get them to mount. It's one drive with two partitoins.

EDIT: Alright, I found out how to mount the partitions. They're mounted, however, they're read-only, and can only be accessed by the root user. I tried logging in as the root user and changing the settings so that it is "owned" by my standard user account, however it tells me that it is read only. I checked the information of the partition using Partitioner, and the box for it to be read-only is unchecked. So now I'm out of ideas. I don't have a huge problem with it being read-only, however, the problem is that I cannot access it under my normal user account.

What does it say in your fstab file? If any of those drives are ntfs, they will only be read only unless you have write support in the kernel.

I restarted the computer and now they show up and work just fine. Haha. But now I'm having issues with AmaroK. It crashes, and I'm sure it has something to do with the system thingy that I'm using to play the music. I tried all of them, Helix, Gstreamer, etc. I can get Banshee to play WMAs but not MP3s using Gstreamer. It's strange. I can't get it to play MP3s though, and I've tried several MP3 plug ins for Gstreamer.

EDIT: Oh yes, I also forgot to mention that Banshee will randomly experience an error. Usually when it goes to the next track I will recieve an error message. I'm currently on my Windows XP partition so I can't type up the error, I'll type it up later. But it will also randomly happen during some songs. And then there are newer WMA files (ones I believe that are encoded with 9.1 audio), that don't work.
