Mine seems to be pretty much identical:-

0000:00:07.1 IDE interface: Intel Corp. 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 IDE (rev 01)

I get:-

/sys/bus/ide
|-- devices
|   |-- 0.0 -> ../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:07.1/ide0/0.0
|   `-- 1.1 -> ../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:07.1/ide1/1.1
`-- drivers
    |-- ide-cdrom
    `-- ide-disk

Strange - only obvious difference I see is that I have the ide disk
support in there as well. The ide-cd support in my kernel is also
modular. My kernel's from kernel.org, debianized with kernel-package, as
opposed to a stock Debian Kernel, but that shouldn't matter....
