HI!
I tested the hack from Holger Lenz on my system and the system works!!!
Now, Doug has to decide what is usable for the official patch.
I attached some kernel information.
Let me know if you need more information.
I'm now looking forward to the 2.2 kernel with a working aic7xxx driver.
Greetings
