If freebsd has a workaround in their >driver, please share the wealth! I don't know about if it's hardware or nay as I haven't read the sourcecode. BUT! I do know that I've worked with two Adaptec 2940 cards in one PC for a full week ++, having had none of the problems you describe. I did however NOT use FreeBSD at that time, but used one for a CD-ROM recorder. So I wonder, do you know what provokes the error? -- - Niklas J. Saers / Beren of Ewox P.S.
