Hello,

The sym driver gets USER settings of SCSI devices from controller NVRAM
and reports these values as USER settings to CAM. The XPT just suggests
SIM to apply USER settings at initialization. But you can manually change
to better settings using camcontrol, once the system is up.=20

Could you check how the device is user-configured in the NVRAM ?
You may let me know if the sym driver is not behaving as it should
regarding sync/wide negotiation. Thanks.

I will provide a man page for the sym driver, but I donnot have found time=
=20
for writing it for the moment.

Regards,
  G=E9rard.
