What about DPT? I am currently in the process of deciding on an EISA
SCSI controller and I noticed that drivers for the DPT controllers
seem to be missing in both the free BSD variants and Linux (they are
well-supported by commercial OS's).

Is DPT withholding information in a way similar to Adaptec, or is it
just because nobody found the time to write a driver yet?
