Re: PERC 3/DI improvements in 3.3?

["Marco Peereboom" <slash@peereboom.us>]

I posted the patch for the driver (not written by me) and the procedure
several times to misc@ and tech@. Look for fracisco or my posts. If you
can't get it to work contact me off list and I'll help you.

The patch works fine with a 2650 (or any other 3/Di platform).
