Hi,
Guess this is a somewhat "tangencial" topic, but I know people on
this list are very SCSI-knoweable, and I'm desperado...
Of course, this controller is needed to build a SW RAID ;)
Adaptec now sells only the AHA2940 UW Pro (note the *Pro*, as it
means all similarities between the old AHA2940UW and this remain only in
the name). This controller isn't detected by Linux.
I've searched the web, mailing lists, driver documentation. even
tried to contact the aic-7xxx driver maintainer. But with no avail by now.
The funny thing is that the chips on this controller seems to be
supported, the difference is that those chips are usually are into a
motherboard, till now they weren't found on a standalone controller.
I don't know if this implies a huge diference, or is a matter of
tweaking the detection functions of the driver (maybe add a new id
string?)
Have anybody came across this controller? Am I talking nosenses?
Thanks in advance,
