• Next Patch: Fix for CD-ROM I/O Errors
  

Some background:

Users of the Adaptec 2940 are reporting messages showing up in "dmesg" to the effect of

release: ipop3d kernel stack corruption. Aiee

(kernel 2.0.29 included)

This is due to gcc creating huge stack frames with the Adaptec 2940 driver.

I want to make sure that people know about this bug, and that this bug is fixed, before 2.0.30 is released.

In addition, if you don't feel confortable with running a beta driver, you can try the following patch - 21-aic7xxx-fix.patch.
