[plug] Problem with Tekram scsi driver

[Phil Steege]

Richard,
Sorry about that reading error.  Here is the "lspci -v output" (just the SCSI 
card portion:

[root at firewall Backups]# /sbin/lspci -v
00:0c.0 SCSI storage controller: Tekram Technology Co.,Ltd. TRM-S1040 (rev 01)
        Subsystem: Tekram Technology Co.,Ltd. TRM-S1040
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 10
        I/O ports at 7000 [size=256]
        Memory at e1002000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
        Expansion ROM at <unassigned> [disabled] [size=64K]
        Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 1

Regards,
Phil
