Message-ID: <20010504130103.T22922@work.bitmover.com> Mail-Followup-To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0pre3i Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org I'm looking for people who know about the 3ware 6410 driver. I've got one of these and sometimes it goes fast and sometimes it doesn't. The bad case seems to happen after memory has a lot of cached blocks in it. I've tried 2.2.15, 2.4.4, and 2.4.3-ac9 and they all behave pretty similarly. I'm most interested in seeing this fixed in the 2.4 series so if there is someone who wants to go into a test/debug cycle with me, speak up. I'd really like this thing to work well. hardware config: K7 @ 750Mhz ASUS K7V motherboard 512MB 4x 3c905 boot disk on the motherboard 4 WD 40GB 7200 drives on one 3ware 6410 matrox g200 AGP -- --- Larry McVoy lm at bitmover.com http://www.bitmover.com/lm
