Not much progress :-) I'm currently using Micropolis 4221 without
tagged queueing under 8Mb/s xfer rate. This is stable at lease for me.
As Jordan made an announcement yesterday, ftp.freebsd.org, which is
the flagship machine of FreeBSD project, is now using AHA2940 (I don't
know whether they're enabling the tagged queueing or not,
though). This makes me believe that AHA2940 driver in
soon-to-be-comming 2.0.5. would be so solid.
