As far as I can tell, its a 7850 Adaptec IC chipset card... FreeBSD even seens to recognize that its a SCSI card of some sort.. Here's my dmesg output --- snip --- pci0:14: vendor=0x10cd, device=0x1200, class=storage (scsi) int a irq 10 [no driver assigned] --- snip --- What I'm going to try to do is futz around with the autodetection routines where it identifies what card it is, but I'd rather go with some more specific instructions... I'd hope that I could just trick my detection routines, but knowing this, I'd probably be SOL... I'm gonna try to get a real 2940 somewhere... This card seems fairly fast, so I'm not sure what I'm going to do, I'd like to keep it.. e-mail me at tgs@sirius.com
