Stephan,

The Adaptec 2940UW-OF is what you need - it has the open firmware on so 
it can talk to the OBP in the Ultra5.

Another alternative could be the IntraServer Technologies Series 3000 
adapter cards; they use Symbios parts, like the Sun cards.  They are 
probably supported by the Linux drivers; one of the driver guys can 
comment on that.

Their web site is:  http://www.intraserver.com/products/
