Smartmontools + Highpoint hptrr?

[Daniel Eriksson]

I'm trying to monitor SATA drives connected to a HighPoint RocketRAID 
2340 card (hptrr driver) using smartmontools, but it doesn't seem to work.

Has anyone managed to get this to work? I'm using RELENG_8 / amd64 if 
that makes any difference.

I've tried both the smartmontools port and a direct checkout from their 
SVN, and I'm getting very similar error messages. From the changelog and 
the manpage it looks like some work has been done to make this work.
