When I try to insmod the module for my DTC3510A, it dies, thusly

And here, it's hung.
Any thoughts on next move? I'd really like to avoid trying to find
out exactly what the exact incompatibility between DTC, and adaptec
is, by poring over adaptec manuals..
Or is that the only option.
(other than a decent SCSI card)
Is there a more recent edition of the driver? I notice the site with the
maintainers account on has gone away.
Does the -DDEBUG_AHA152X option in the Makefile really switch on all the
debugging (as it seems to me?)
Sorry for the multitude of questions :)
