The new driver sees the controller but the controller doesn't see the drives? Or, if the kernel doesn't see the controller then maybe consider adding the SATA_AHCI driver as a test. I'm still a bit confused when trying to figure out which controller uses which driver, but I've been tripped up with that particular driver before.
