Ok my original response to you may have been wrong. I think that patch may not have fixed my problem with the cpqarray driver though I could be wrong. If the patch doesn't work for you try downgrading the cpqarray driver. Copy the cpqarray.[ch], ida_cmd.h, and ida_ioctl.h files from the drivers/block directory from an earlier kernel source tree over the ones in your 2.4.14 kernel source tree. This fixed the problem I had.
