| |
Hi there!
I've been using the AHA2940UW SCSI controller with a Barracuda 4LP hard disk for 2 months now. Yesterday, I browsed through the kernel source tree and found the following line in drivers/scsi/aic7xxx.c:
static int aic7xxx_enable_ultra = 0; /* enable ultra SCSI speeds */ So, it appears that I've been using Linux without UltraSCSI enabled. I know that the controller also has a factory default setting to disable UltraSCSI.
I think that there should be a text explaining how to enable the UltraSCSI timings (from the kernel command line) if there is some reason the default should be to disable them.
