Re: Symbios 53c875 SCSI



hmm not off the top of my head, the driver when it loads should give a
driver version (I don't use .34 anymore but I did) ; ie 

Feb  4 08:37:17 the-penguin kernel: ncr53c8xx: at PCI bus 0, device 11, function 0

                                                        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  
Could it be a termination or hardware interupt problem? I have 6 of these
cards in various Linux servers, and have never had a problem with hamm.


Another question I have to the greater Debian community is what version of
the kernel is in slink? I am not suggesting slink to install just to
trouble shoot.
