FYI...

FreeBSD 2.0.5Release does not recognice the new Adaptec 2940 controller.

I bought this controller from my local dealer just a couple of days ago, and
they mention nothing about a new release of the hardware :-(

My old ( ca 6months ) 2940 is OK.

Info on the chips and pcb:

AHA-2940/2940U (Assy 916506-01).  (pcb)
AHA-2940S76 W/AUTO,  948500-01 C,  9545.   (chip)
589219-00 C,  BIOS 2800, @ 1995.  ( bios chip)

I've also tried the AsusTek OEM 2940's and they work ok (both fast and
fast/wide).

Running this on brand new Intel ZP (Zappa)'s and AsusTek DualPent. and 
the new AsusTek P/I-P55TP4XE.

Planning to test FreeBSD on a PentiumPro (atx) system january...
