I believe that the "new" patches for Doug's pre-5 code were never sent
to the mailing-list - or they have skipped my attention. However, a few
decades ago my father made me to learn German. Now, he was not all that
successful but the knowledge residuals allowed me to partially decode a
message send on Tuesday, July 28 by Juergen Hammelmann to Wolf Brandt.
After all, the important part is self-explanatory. These are the two
patches I needed to get my system working. It would be more sensible to
list here a diff of the aic7xxx.c file, but I am not at my Linux system
now...

patches:

static inline void
restart_sequencer(struct aic7xxx_host *p)
{
  aic_outb(p, 0, SEQADDR0);
  aic_outb(p, 0, SEQADDR1);
  aic_outb(p, FASTMODE | FAILDIS, SEQCTL);
}

line 8531:
dann noch ab Zeile 8531 muss es noch statt PCI_COMMAND DEVCONFIG
heissen:



#ifdef AIC7XXX_STRICT_PCI_SETUP
          pci_read_config_dword(pdev, DEVCONFIG, &devconfig);
          if (aic7xxx_verbose & VERBOSE_PROBE2)
          {
            printk("aic7xxx: Initial DEVCONFIG value was 0x%x\n",
devconfig);
          }
          devconfig |= 0x80000000;
          if ((aic7xxx_pci_parity == 0) || (aic7xxx_pci_parity == -1))
          {
            devconfig &= ~(0x00000008);
          }
          else
          {
            devconfig |= 0x00000008;
          }
          pci_write_config_dword(pdev, DEVCONFIG, devconfig);
#endif /* AIC7XXX_STRICT_PCI_SETUP */
