There are two different aic7xxx modules available in the kernel. One is
the original dating back to the 2.0 series kernel and the second is a
vendor supported module. I think the current default is the newer module.
You may need to switch to the older one.
I ran into an issue with SMP support, the pre-emptable kernel patch and
both aic7xxx drivers. I eventaully had to disable SMP support to get it
working correctly.
I seem to remember reading a series of complaints about certain aic7xxx
cards not being true aic7xxx cards. The only solution offered was to try
one of the other aic modules.
