Hi, you!

I do care to fix the driver when it is needed, but the kernel is moving at
the speed of light at the moment, as you can see, and I haven't time to
investigate every problem report involving the driver for each pre-2.2
patch. On the other hand, 2.1.132 and pre-2.2.0 snap-shots have the _same_
ncr53c8xx driver files.
My guess is that the fix for your problem will come soon and probably will
not change a bit in any ncr53c8xx driver file. ;-)
Regards,
Gerard.
