I think we have one of those, it shows up as
	mpt0@pci5:1:0:  class=0x010000 card=0x3228103c chip=0x00541000
	rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
	    vendor     = 'LSI Logic (Was: Symbios Logic, NCR)'
	    device     = 'SAS 3000 series, 8-port with 1068 -StorPort'
	    class      = mass storage
	    subclass   = SCSI

It works as a SATA-controller, but is awfully slow. Both HP and Dell 
seems to be using these now (this is from an HP ProLiant DL140 g3 and 
I've seen the same card and chip id from a Dell PowerEdge 860 or somesuch).

What can we do to help the driver support this device? If nothing else,
I can provide remote access (including KVM when the Lo100i kit arrives) 
if that could help you.

Cheers, Martin
