Hi all!

I've got FreeBSD 2.1R, and am getting ready to add a SCSI controller
to my system, in addition to the IDE controller card I've already
got running.  I am specifically shopping for a VLB Fast SCSI-II type.

I've been over the 'supported hardware' list, and note that QLogic SCSI
controllers are not mentioned.  They claim Adaptec compatibility, so it
isn't clear to me whether or not FreeBSD supports them.

Is anyone running FreeBSD with QLogic SCSI controllers?  If so, how well
do they work, and which model have you got?

Please email dwatsn@entertain.com, as our newsfeed has been flakey the
last week or so.

TIA!
