My DC-390 works with disks, but not with Tandberg 4220 streamer under
kernels 2.0.30 & 2.0.32. During finishnig 'tar' has timeout.
Questions: 1) has new unstable kernels better am53c794 drivers
2) Can I select other driver ?
3) Is Tekram web site helpfull ?
4) Has driver tag queing or not ? I hear not. (Under Buslogic flashpoint
disk hame less seek's )
