You can get the latest ADAPTEC patches from: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?a=108731197000012&r=5&w=2 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?a=108731197000012&r=4&w=2 under the subject "patch XX/28] Sync up drivers/scsi/aic7xxx". But maybe, there are newer patches inside Adaptec, ask it to Luben Tuikov <luben_tuikov@xxxxxxxxxxx> This is a _very critical_ driver and I hope someone take it back to life again. - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
