SCSI detection problems persist

I'm still having problems with the newer kernels ( > 2.1.93 ) not being
ablt to detect my on-board scsi. I was secretly hoping that 2.1.96 would
be the answer, but it doesn't seem to be that way. I've got an integrated
scsi controller with an ncr53c7xx chipset. I've been sucessfully running
kernels since somewhere around 2.1.59 with the same setup, but some recent
change has made it so on bootup it says

SCSI: 0 hosts

This causes the boot to fail as I have no other scsi adapters and no ide.
It's an SMP system, and I've tried both UP and SMP kernels with no
difference.

I find it hard to believe that noone else has had this problem, but even
so, can anyone give me any direction as to how to debug the issue myself?
I've not done any kernel hacking per se, but I can hold my own in C and am
interested in running the newest kernels.

thanks,
Brian
