Ok, well, I have this un-committed change sitting in my tree that=E2=80=99= s LIKE A SPLINTER IN MY MIND=E2=80=A6 So, I dug out my other AlphaStation 200 (which, alas, is dead, Jim) and = scavenged the ISP1020A board out of it (oh hey, now it=E2=80=99s an = organ donor!) and plopped it into my DS10 which, for various reasons = (don=E2=80=99t ask), is more accessible at the moment than my other = AlphaStation-with-an-ISP1020A. And then ordered a new BlueSCSI UltraWide and a cable to go along with = it. So, hopefully soon I=E2=80=99ll be able to test the fix myself. -- thorpej
