Hi,

maybe I should send out this little note for feedback:

I realized that using the 1542 driver seems to stop the kernel clock 
for about 1.5 seconds (after reboot my clock is that for off, even 
when using xntpd to synchronize it before). Is that a well-known 
effect? The aic7xxx does not to cause such an effect.

For the 2940: I had reported troubles with the aic7xxx driver 
included in 2.0.33 when making a backup to a HP DAT. The answer was 
"check you cables", and maybe even the answer is not completely off, 
BUT:

Using the 5.0.7 driver from Doug (??? spelling), I definitely have no 
problems, even though I must admit that I'm using tagged queueing for 
the 2.0.33 driver (4.1?), but no tagged queueing for the 5.0.7 
driver. (Only because I can't remember the syntax to enable it in the 
recent version)

Regards,
Ulrich
