I just checked .. that is right. So let me put it this way. > When ever I hot-plug my HBA into the system, the driver "qla2300" gets > loaded. Where as the correct driver is "qla2322".

A similar problem was noted with RHEL4, it seems the modules.pcimap and pci.ids file were correct, but the pcitable file contained entries for all ql[ae]23xx based HBAs to load qla2300.ko. It's my understanding that this was fixed for RHEL4 U1. Which distro are you using? If you are using RHEL, and are still having problems, I'd suggest you file a report with Redhat.
