It is not a Have a look at ahc(4), /usr/src/sys/pci/aic7870.c, etc. There are serveral options to play with. The 2940's got lots of knobs in the <ctrl-a> bootup menu too, one is to disable ultra, maybe that'll do it... ahc(4) warns about some drives (Quantum?) not working properly if the speed is set to wide open. I just got a QuickTech motherboard with on-board aic7860; it's not quite as good as the stand alone version, but it seems ok. I haven't done a `make world' yet, but several kernel compiles. What version of FBSD are you running? I've got problems using 2.1.5 with a Quantum ultra scsi driver on the ncr driver... it won't even boot. But -current/2.2 works fine. It's not a problem because we're going to use 2.2 anyway... > >-Brandon Gillespie > eric. -- erich@lodgenet.com http://rrnet.com/~erich erich@rrnet.com
