French newbie question :

I have installed redhat 5.1 on a quantum viking II scsi hard drive using
an adaptec 2940UW controller. Everything worked perfectly. There was the
default configuration from /proc/scsi/aic7xxx/0 :

Adaptec AIC7xxx driver version: 5.0.13/3.2.4
Compile Options:
  AIC7XXX_RESET_DELAY    : 15
  AIC7XXX_TAGGED_QUEUEING: Adapter Support Enabled
                             Check below to see which
                             devices use tagged queueing
  AIC7XXX_PAGE_ENABLE    : Enabled (This is no longer an option)
  AIC7XXX_PROC_STATS     : Disabled

Adapter Configuration:
           SCSI Adapter: Adaptec AHA-294X Ultra SCSI host adapter
                           Ultra Wide Controller
    PCI MMAPed I/O Base: 0xe1000000
      Adaptec SCSI BIOS: Enabled
                    IRQ: 10
                   SCBs: Active 0, Max Active 1,
                         Allocated 30, HW 16, Page 255
             Interrupts: 2346
      BIOS Control Word: 0x18a6
   Adapter Control Word: 0x005e
   Extended Translation: Enabled
         SCSI Bus Reset: Enabled
Disconnect Enable Flags: 0xffff
     Ultra Enable Flags: 0xffff
 Tag Queue Enable Flags: 0x0000
Ordered Queue Tag Flags: 0x0000
Default Tag Queue Depth: 8
    Tagged Queue By Device array for aic7xxx host instance 1:
      {255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255}
    Actual queue depth per device for aic7xxx host instance 1:
      {1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1}



Then I had the stupid idea to upgrade the kernel from 2.0.34-0.6 to
2.0.36-0.7. Apparently, all went OK, but when I had my system reboot,
and tried to copy a big file, the system lockedup for a few seconds,
then continued copying, then locked again, then.... until the copy was
done. A few things have changed in my scsi config as you can see :

Adaptec AIC7xxx driver version: 5.1.2/3.2.4
Compile Options:
  AIC7XXX_RESET_DELAY    : 15
  AIC7XXX_TAGGED_QUEUEING: Adapter Support Enabled
                             Check below to see which
                             devices use tagged queueing
  AIC7XXX_PAGE_ENABLE    : Enabled (This is no longer an option)
  AIC7XXX_PROC_STATS     : Enabled

Adapter Configuration:
           SCSI Adapter: Adaptec AHA-294X Ultra SCSI host adapter
                           Ultra Wide Controller
    PCI MMAPed I/O Base: 0xe1000000
 Adapter SEEPROM Config: SEEPROM found and used.
      Adaptec SCSI BIOS: Enabled
                    IRQ: 10
                   SCBs: Active 0, Max Active 1,
                         Allocated 15, HW 16, Page 255
             Interrupts: 6883
      BIOS Control Word: 0x18a6
   Adapter Control Word: 0x005e
   Extended Translation: Enabled
Disconnect Enable Flags: 0xffff
     Ultra Enable Flags: 0x0001
 Tag Queue Enable Flags: 0x0000
Ordered Queue Tag Flags: 0x0000
Default Tag Queue Depth: 8
    Tagged Queue By Device array for aic7xxx host instance 0:
      {255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255,255}
    Actual queue depth per device for aic7xxx host instance 0:
      {1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1}


but I don't understand a word of it, and don't know neither how to
change this config without reinstalling everything.

Can someone help me ?
