While "highly incomplete" is a little bit of an exageration, the older driver did not support things like tagged queuing and had spotty error recovery. It did support sync/wide/ultra transparently as that is the way the MultiMaster interface works. Anyway, you should try the CAM BusLogic driver I wrote. It handles tagged queuing, uses all available transaction space on the card, and provides for error recovery: ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/cam/ We only support Multi-Master cards right now. If you have a FlashPoint card (like a BT-950), you'll have to either write your own driver, or wait for me to get around to it (likely another month or two). -- Justin To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
