https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=262431 Summary: Add support for Areca RAID controllers Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: nickchengster@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de The arcmsr driver provides support for a line of extremely high performance RAID cards. This includes PCI Express SATA controllers. The website is: http://www.areca.us/ The arcmsr driver has cleared all reviewer hurdles, and now James Bottomley has it in his scsi-misc git tree for merge (waiting for 2.6.19 to open). As of today, the driver is located at: http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jejb/scsi-misc-2.6.diff Please include the driver in the SuSE kernel. BTW, Ubuntu has included this in their kernel since 6.06 LTS. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=262431 ------- Comment #1 from jeffm@novell.com 2007-04-10 10:18 MST ------- Created an attachment (id=130157) --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=130157&action=view) SRPM package for arcmsr driver. This driver has actually been accepted into mainline and is in our openSUSE 10.3 kernels. Other than that, I'm afraid we won't add drivers into an already released kernel. The alternative is to use an external KMP, which we don't consider part of the official release. I've rolled one up quickly, but I've only compile-tested it. You can grab it from this attachment and I'll place it in the opensuse build service later today. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
