Re: Mandriva Linux 2006.0 Core Updates 2

More than 2 years ago I reported a problem with aic79xx in combination
with the Adaptec 39320A card on a Tyan dual Opteron BM.
I have now tested the same SCSI card on the same MB with the 2.6.17
kernel on Mandriva 2007.0 x86_64, as well as with the Linus 2.6.19
kernel in contrib, both with the same result:
A cp from an IDE disk to the SCSI disk hangs the system completely,
when I copy a few hundred MB of files.
This is basically what happened 2 years ago.
The aic79xx driver seems to have been updated to 3.0
Maybe this card is never going to work, but it would be nice to
know why. Any comments are appreciated.
