Subject: Advansys SCSI driver and 2.6.16
Date: Wed, 19 Apr 2006 14:49:37 -0400 (EDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0604191444200.1841@death> (raw)
I use an Advansys controller for an old, slow SCSI drive and my flatbed
scanner. I noticed that upon trying to boot 2.6.16, my Advansys controller
wasn't detected. Further investigation shows that the driver has been
fairly silently disappearing over the last couple releases.
Is this a permanent change or is the Advansys driver just in need of some
updating to current APIs? I'd hate to have to replace this controller and
I don't want to be stuck at 2.6.15 forever. If someone could point me in
the right direction about what the problem is, I'd be glad to take a look
at seeing if I could fix it.
