but it still describes my current problem.

Hi everybody,

I just testet the new version (5.0.11( of the aic7xxx driver with not
much luck. At first I adapted it to 2.1.92 but it simply hung right
after squid was scanning its cache directory.

So I downloaded a plain 2.0.33 and applied the original patch without
any modifications, but just had the same results. BTW, the bus
activity LED was constantly on and after rebooting with the big red
button the Adaptec BIOS hung without identifying any of my devices.

Power-cycling the machine just cured _that_ problem.

I'm using an AHA-3940 with a pretty old BIOS version (1.12 I think).

... cheers

/Patrick
