Begin forwarded message: Date: Fri, 1 Dec 2006 20:04:17 -0800 From: bugme-daemon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To: bugme-new@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [Bugme-new] [Bug 7616] New: new kernel 2.6.19 causes aic7xxx driver to not work with tape drive http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7616 Summary: new kernel 2.6.19 causes aic7xxx driver to not work with tape drive Kernel Version: 2.6.19 Status: NEW Severity: high Owner: scsi_drivers-other@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Submitter: freelsjd@xxxxxxxx CC: freelsjd@xxxxxxxx Most recent kernel where this bug did *NOT* occur: 2.6.18.4 Distribution: Debian/Stable/Sarge Hardware Environment: dual-processor AMD opteron Software Environment: amanda 2.4.4p3-3 Problem Description: I just tried it out and found that it caused my tape drive (Exabyte 1x10 changer with VXA-2 tape drive) to not work. The reason turned out to be the Adaptec aic7xxx driver (newer of the two) failed. Under 2.6.18.x, this newer driver works fine. Under 2.6.19 it failed. I then enabled the older (no longer supported) aic7xxx driver, disabled the newer one, and it works fine. The adapter is an Adaptec 29160N which is supposed to work fine with the newer aic7xxx driver. Steps to reproduce: use 2.6.19 fails with new aic7xxx driver use 2.6.19 works with old aic7xxx driver use 2.6.18.4 and earlier works with either driver ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. - To unsubscribe from this list: 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
