Hi Doug:

I've got one little problem with the pre13 driver. It seems one of my,
admittedly older, wide drives isn't being ID'd as being wide. It's
SCSI ID is 5 and it's /dev/sda under Debian Linux 2.0. I've included
the results of the "scsiinfo -i /dev/sda" and "cat /proc/scsi/aic7xxx/0" 
command below. Since the device is rather old anyway I doubt it would
make much difference performance wise, but it is annoying.

My adapter is a 2940UW with BIOS v1.23. It's running plugged into a
PCI slot on an ASUS XP6NP5 PPro 200 motherboard. Linux kernel version
is 2.0.35 with the pre13 patch applied and aic7xxx compiled directly
into the kernel.

Thanks for all the hard work.
Gary
