: i had the same problem with version 1.17 of the ncr53c8xx driver
: on an 825 board.
: version 1.18 will fix this specific problem and is available
: at linux.wauug.org/pub/roudier.
: it is supposedly available in all kernels from 2.1.33 forward
: but i've not had much luck in configuring it in 2.1.35.
: it is an astonishing performance improvement for the 825.
: i suspect this is due to 16 bit transfer and configurable
: tag queueing.
Thanx for your reply! (And thanx to all the others who wrote in
private email - i will answer them today ;-)
I have to say, that i didn't try the 2.1.x kernels - i even holded
back in reporting these error because i was willing to wait for the
always next kernel-release, but now, as this is still occuring i
wanted to share my experience ...
I will try the BSD driver at first and then wait for kernel 2.2.x to
try the new ncr53c8xx!
Thanx again and
Byebye,
