I need all the input in the next few days ... so don't put it off :)
The advansys scsi driver would be nice to have. I believe you have to turn off CONFIG_CLEAN_COMPILE in order for it to become available. If doing that is a showstopper, then I understand.
I have looked into the advansys driver issue while talking to someone on #centos who had one of those cards.
The driver is flagged as BROKEN in the 2.6 line, so you have to enable CONFIG_BROKEN to get it into the kernel.
So I'd rather *not* see that driver in centosplus. But that's just me. Furthermore: The driver doesn't seem to be maintained anymore in 2.6.

I agree w/ Ralph on this one. Don't want this in the kernel since it is not really maintained.
No problem, I should probably just pony up the cash and get a new card anyway. I paid $50 for it about 7 or 8 years ago, so I'd think I got my money's worth.
