RE: [BK PATCH] SCSI update for 2.6.3

[Moore, Eric Dean]

I don't see the banner displayed by the driver
which would contain the FwRev, Ports, MaxQ, IRQ.
I suspect hw/fw issues with the card itself.

What happens when you attach drives to the card;
e.g. does the driver load then?

Can you upgrade your firmware to the latest.
