RE: kernel and SmartRaidV controller SOLVED

I answer myself, I hope this can help someone in the future. download the patch from ftp://ftp.dpt.com/pub/techsup/SRV/software/drivers/linux/dpt1.14-2.2.16.tar and compile the kernel with gcc272. It seems that gcc 2.95 over optimizes the kernel. -- (@ @) ---oOO(_)OOo Los pecados de los tres mundos desapareceran conmigo. Alexis Roda - Universitat Rovira i Virgili - Reus, Tarragona (Spain)
kernel and SmartRaidV controller
Hi, this morning I have upgraded a computer from slink to potato, the process went very smooth and all seems to be fine. My problem is when I try to get the kernel (2.2.17) to detect the SmartRaidV controller. I've downdoaded some patches from adaptec's web site and followed the instructions but either they not apply cleanly, or make-kpkg dies or the computer gets unusable (load average over 6 and SCSI bus hanging). Currently I'm running the old 2.0.36 kernel with SmartRaidV support but I would like to upgrade the kernel too. Any one has experienced the same problems? any clue? Happy new year and TIA -- (@ @) ---oOO(_)OOo Los pecados de los tres mundos desapareceran conmigo. Alexis Roda - Universitat Rovira i Virgili - Reus, Tarragona (Spain)
