Gibbs" Sender: owner-freebsd-scsi@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I've uploaded a new version of the aic7xxx driver here: http://people.FreeBSD.org/~gibbs/aic7xxx-20000916.tar.gz It contains a slew of fixes for different chip and chip->chipset issues that I've been able to uncover documentation for. These fixes affect several of the chips depending on the type of PCI chipset you have, so if you've been having trouble, give this a shot. To name a few hot items: o 7880 controller hangs should be resolved. o The 3940AUW should work again. (I burned almost two weeks tracking down this obscure issue with external SCB memory). o Some issues with U160 controllers on 66MHz busses should be corrected. The new driver should be going into -current as soon as some repo-copy work is completed by the CVS-meisters, and, based on feedback, this code is certainly a candidate for -stable. -- Justin To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
