The 2940 for that Ultra was a 2940UW/OF. Adaptec put out one driver
for it for 2.6, and never updated it. It's the last Adaptec I'll
ever buy, Sparc, Intel or PowerPC. It's still laying around in a
drawer somewhere at work, I could put it in an Ultra5 to try the
Sparc port if that would help someone.
