Any idea how to get Linux work with an Adaptec AAA-131SA (Array1000SA)
RAID controller? Linux sees an Adaptec 398X instead and all the single
disks, but not the stripe sets which already exist.
TIA,
Erwin

The problem is coming from:
199.201.191.2
It is changing the Message-ID, so the bounces escape the natural screening
of news servers. I'm fairly sure the problem is being looked into, news
admins probably don't appreciate their news traffic tripling overnight.

Urk.

I had no trouble using kernel 2.2.9 and 2.2.10 on a K6-2, compiled as i586
and with MTRR support.

The ES1373 is compatible with the ES1371.
