The adapter is recognized, but it does not show any virtual nor physical drives. I have no skills to correct the problem. Furthermore, I have found some comments on this hardware no longer supported by Dell, RedHat, etc. Will you accept a patch that limits PCI IDs with VID=101E, DID=1960 and SSVID=1028 in the new driver to exactly three models specified in its source file comments and, on the other hand, adds PCI ID of Dell CERC ATA100/4ch to the old driver?
