Here's one that needs doing. There is an NCR 53c710 driver in linux/drivers/scsi/ncr53c7xx.c. This is the SCSI controller found in the: 712, 715/{64,80,100}, 725/100, A180 and possibly others. If anyone is feeling really enterprising (or perhaps just frustrated), they could try getting this driver to work with the following machines: 705, 710, 715/{33,50,75}, 720, 725/{50,75}, 730, 735, 750, 755 which contain the NCR 53c700. The _comments_ in the driver suggest that it's almost supported, but I don't know how up to date they are. If you do decide to work on it, please ensure you're working from the linux-2.3 tree and let everyone know you're working on it.
