troubles with DAC960

troubles with DAC960

[Boris Andratzek]

Hello members of the kernel-list,


I'm new to this and hope I don't misuse the list in any way.

Doing the update from debian sarge to etch on my server I ran into the
bug documented here: bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7177
I already made some comments there. I tried to contact the maintainer of
the DAC960 driver but as far as I found out, Leonard N. Zubkoff
unfortunatly died in a helicopter crash.

Without being impious, I want to ask if anybody can give me an idea of
how this thing will go on. Is there anybody new doing the maintaining?
Is there hope for a fix? Where can I find more information? Can I do
anything to help (testing, logging)?

regards,

Boris Andratzek

Hello!?

I didn't catch no reaction at all, so I am not sure if I sent my
question the right way! Could anybody respond, please, even without an
idea of solving my problem!?

Thanks,

Boris

There is no current DAC960 maintainer.

I'd try asking on the linux-scsi mailing list (cc-ed there).
