This is an OpenPGP/MIME signed message (RFC 2440 and 3156) --------------enigA69E31B76B7EFC0D7E886B9D Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable [Redirected to -current@, I think this is more suitable for -current@ or -scsi@] It seems that RELENG_7 carries a newer version of driver, so I guess the problem should have been resolved. Part of changes were MFC'ed 5 months ago to RELENG_6, so you may also want to try a RELENG_6 snapshot from: http://www.freebsd.org/snapshots/ In order to verify if it resolves your problem. Let us know if the problem still persists.
