Well, sounds like your patch won't be making it into kernel 2.2.15,
either. 

For myself I bought a Tekram DC-390U2W a few days ago. Besides supporting
the newer, nicer drives, the Debian 2.2.7 boot floppies boot now.

However, I am confused about which driver That card should be using.

Both Mandrake 6.1 and the Debian 2.2.7 boot floppies run the NCR53C895
driver for this DC-390U2W. Is this correct? It seems to works, ok.
But is the sym53c8... or another driver better?

Thanks for your help.
