I respond to myself, in case it may help someone with the same hardware:
the good drivers (at least the rpm's output says that everything is ok)
are the dkms's one:
http://download.qlogic.com/drivers/32113/qla2xxx-v8.00.03b-1dkms.tar.gz
---
# rpm -Uvh dkms-2.0.5-1.noarch.rpm
# rpm -Uvh qla2xxx-v8.00.03b-1dkms.noarch.rpm
It need the kernel devel package in order to build the module.
[OFF] It seems that my Selinux was the source of the scriplet error.
Btw lspci output still shows:
09:04.0 Fibre Channel: QLogic Corp.: Unknown device 6312 (rev 03)
Thanks anyway and if someone use the same hardware on CentOS I would
really appreciate some hints for a clean install.
