The driver included in the 2.1 kernels DOES support the UW card.
I would suggest getting that driver, it does work with the 2.0 (and the 1.2)
kernels. I am not sure which version of the driver is being shipped with
Debian's kernel.
That is driver version 3.1D and goes in

I have Adaptec 2940s in two of my Debian machines (one is our Debian
mirror) and have never had a problem. My cohorts at work use them in
a variety of situations with cd writers, scanners, etc. running
Windows 95 and NT. No complaints here.

just as well.

hi,
I have bought the advansys cards and i must say that they are excellent in
terms of value for money, support, and features. you can also get them at
a growing number of places on the web. on the diamond unit, it is my

I agree with everyone else's statement that BusLogic is Good, but there's

Adaptec and Diamond will work at the expense of some robustness.
I'll never buy them.
