Hi,

I've built another kernel linux - 2.6.24-20.37cking4 which is available in my PPA. It includes the following commits that exist from the Hardy 8.04.1 kernel up to the 2.6.24.7 kernel that seems to work. For reference sake, the commits including in this build are as follows:

However, I have not applied commit 1b96f8955aaeeb05f7fb7ff548aa12415fbf3904 as this requires changes to the include/scsi/scsi_cmnd.h across all SCSI subsystems which is a too intrusive a change (since it needs to be verified across all the SCSI subsystems that it affects).

I hope these patches get the driver into a more stable state.

Please test and let me know the results as I do not have the hardware here to test these patches.

Thanks, Colin.
