Re: 2.6.14: advansys & zd1201 on PowerMac 8500/G3

[John Mock]

    PowerMac 8500 is an old fragile beast. Especially with a G3 processor
    hooked on it. The venerable Apple Bandit PCI bridge can have some
    "issues" every now and then with trivial things like ... cache coherency
    (ugh !). It tends to hit things like USB pretty badly. I can't guarantee
    for sure that's the cause of your problem, but it's possible...

The ZD1201 driver has been stable on 2.6.11.7 and i think also 2.6.13-rc6,
but 2.6.14/ppc seems to have problems with that driver.  I suppose i could
try building up an 2.6.14/i386 and test it there if that might help...  

Attached are some USB kernel messages and extracts from `lsusb -v`.  Thank
you for your comments and assistance.
