Loaded 2.1.6 from ftp.freebsd.org and all is OK. Here's what I've found with an AHA2940AU. On cold boot, devices are scanned correctly. On warm boot or reset, devices are not found. Just what is the difference between the 2940U and 2940AU anyway? This cold boot versus warm boot thing isn't so bad but it will make it a pain to remotely reboot a server. -- font@mcs.net Wishes are like dishes.
