I just received the Walnut creek cdrom of version 2.2.1.  I seem to recall
seeing some messages about there being a bug discovered in the adaptec 2940
drivers.

Is my memory correct ?

Is that bug present in my current 2.1.6 ( patched for security hole )
system ?

Is the bug fixed in the newly released 2.2.1 cdrom ?

Is there a patch to fix the bug somewhere ?

Or am I worrying to much ?

Thanks, Dave
