Interesting ... I am using that module with kernel 2.6.13 and have no
problems. Maybe this related to the old hardware I use, maybe to the
fact that the Suse-guys have patched that already (assumption: NO
research done on this by me ...)
Some bell rang ....
Could someone point mo to any related bugreport on this?
Maybe this has to do with some strange symptoms I see at a customers
site. They use aic7xx with linux-2.6.8 on a Suse-9.2 ...
No complete lockups, but strange tape-errors all over the place.
Everything swapped already, the only thing that helped so far was
putting the drive out of the box and laying it on the top of the case
with the SCSI-cables through the air ;) Smooth backups since then.
Might be temperature, we'll try an external case for that drive.
But maybe it has to with some module/kernel-problems as well ...
