They don't rev very often, and they aren't "so picky", it is just that the driver in recent revisions was not adequately tested on the 60 or so different SCSI card configurations that exist using these chips. That was my fault, and doesn't have anything to do with the quality of the controllers or how well they will perform in FreeBSD. As always, I am interested in knowing the details of this problem and would like to resolve it. The easiest way to do this is to switch over to using 4.1-stable built from source so I can work directly with the site to debug the problem. > I believe that freebsd-bugs is for PRs only, and no humans actually read >that list.
