It's probably a bug in your PCIC where it doesn't send interrupts when a card is inserted/removed like it's supposed to. I disabled the 'polling' ability in -current a while back so that people who had broken hardware would tell me (~ March), and given the lack of feedback I assumed that most hardware worked. :) > Oh, why not talk about all problems I've seen ? :) Using a Adaptec > SlimScsi from a friend I noted that removing and reinserting the card > creates a second scsi bus (scbus1).

The AIC driver doesn't support bus removal, and you aren't running CAM at all because the AIC driver isn't supported under CAM (yet). There are some PAO patches to support bus removal, but I don't know if it does the right thing, and I'm not sure if it would port to CAM.
