Description jason wohlgemuth 2004-05-21 22:54:42 UTC
PCI ID: 1101:9502
I used this card many years ago in a Redhat 6.0 system just fine.  There is currently a driver in 2.4.x and 2.6.x kernels but it won't recognize the card any more.
lspci currently shows this as a PCI Floppy Controller, which it is not.
A picture of the card can be seen at http://www.rcpcomputer.com/io/910uw.jpg
It uses an Initio INIC-950P chipset. The card has an external 68 pin connector, an internal 68 pin connector and an internal 50 pin connector.

Judging from the pci.ids in the kernel source:
1101  Initio Corporation
        1060  INI-A100U2W
        9100  INI-9100/9100W
        9400  INI-940
        9401  INI-950
        9500  360P
It appears that it is no longer in the list. It should be using the ini9100u.c driver.  


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.lspci
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
PCI Floppy Controller

Expected Results:  
PCI Ultrawide SCSI controller INI-9100U (INIC-950P)

I have submitted a change in the http://pciids.sourceforge.net list. I'll submit
a full lspci printout shortly to this bug.

It appears the card is correctly identified as a scsi controller in 2.6.5-gentoo-r1 as 1101:9500 (I haven't tried the driver yet) . The 2.4.x on the x86 2004.1 livecd sees it as a floppy controller as 1101:9502 odd. I'm going to cancel the bug for now until I can investigate further. (Marking as INVALID because it may work now)
