I don't think Kubuntu is the problem. The libata new standard has been implemented definitively in Intrepid, so there's no way to revert back to old ide modules and we just have to stick with ide drives recognized as /dev/sd* This means we should have slow speeds until libata bugs will be fixed.

Someone compiled the old modules against new kernels and blacklisted the generic drivers, but it's been verified with Via and AMD chipsets. I've got a Ali chipset which module is pata_ali and I can't find linux-image-2.6.24-12-generic, so I can't extract the alim15x3.ko module.

Take a look at this bug report:

Hope it helps.
