Email address: :) thanks for mentioning it - saved me a bounce, I hope.
Adaptec AVA 1505? I can't help there. I'm still using 2.027 and 2.029
kernels. Those sources don't mention a 1505. The AVA refers to the BIOS
on the card, unless I am badly mistaken. I grep'ed for 1505 in the
kernel source directory, in /usr/src/kernel-source-xxxx/drivers/scsi/*
Your card should be mentioned there if the driver supports your card.
Hope this helps.
Now MY quesion: How can I get Frye's mail address or web page. Web
searches on obvious strings don't yield a web page nor an email address.
