Hmmm, I dunno about 2.4, but on 2.2, the 3Ware driver is fully GPL and actively maintained by 3Ware. Alan Cox periodically syncs the driver in the mainline kernel with the current 3Ware release. No proprietary module is needed. So the differences should be little to none. The 3Ware management utility is binary-only, true. In our experience, it has always worked without trouble, regardless of kernel. I particularly like the feature that emails you when a disk fails. -- Ben Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | The opinions expressed in this message are those of the author and do not | | necessarily represent the views or policy of any other person, entity or | | organization.
