Fsys.aha8scsi Adaptec 19160 Pentium4: no adaptors found

On a new Pentium4 1500 MHz ACER-PC Fsys.aha8scsi doesn’t find an
scsi controller adaptec 19160, we only see:

no adaptors found!

On a Pentium2 200 MHz Fsys.aha8scsi works perfectly with the same
contoller.

btw. Fsys.aha8scsi aha8scsi -v complains about bad arguments…

Any hints would be great!

The version we have here is dated 6 Feb 2001 - probably from Patch E.
I have no idea if it will fix the P4 problem, but there were several bug
fixes since your version.

Thanks for the hint!
We tried the new Fsys.aha8scsi, but it also doesn’t work.
Are there any diagnostic tools beyond show_pci that might help ?

How can we turn on the verbose mode ?

Fsys.aha8scsi aha8scsi -v

Error processing arguments for ‘aha8scsi’ module
No Adaptors found!

It looks like the output from “show_pci -v” is incomplete. Can you post it
again?

The “No adaptors found” message means you may have to supply the chipset
ID via the -c option to the aha8scsi peremeter. Or the card is broken,
or …

On the other hand, I think you would be better off listening to Kevin
Chiles in the message below - he is the master.

In the meantime we got a brand new Fsys.aha8scsi from > support@qnx.de> , and

this works fine!

Many thanks
