Well, the simple answer is that this is not a general bug. Plenty of people, myself included, are running this combination of motherboard and host adapter. What is the rest of your hardware? dmesg output would be a good idea. It's also a good idea to try a GENERIC kernel modified for SMP, rather than a kernel with other modifications, just in case that's the problem.
