Please do try with that kernel. If it still doesn't work, I'll prepare
more modules for you to try; we're trying to narrow down which of the
patches broke stuff. If the kernel in my kernel-image-aic7xxx directory
doesn't fix it for you (that drops the pci-id-table patches), the next
suspect patch is the hostraid patch (1.1832.91.1).
