FYI--I updated to aic7xxx-5.1.0pre2, and now I'm finally seeing all my
devices. (The 5.0.x series never could detect my Zip drive and rarely
detected my CD-ROM.) The "Bad SCBPTR" messages seem to have gone away
as well.

My configuration is

Two Adaptec 2940UW cards

I'll see how well it holds up over the next few days, but so far this
driver is a vast improvement for me over 5.0.x.
