The mode is fixed, now. I'm sorry for inconvenience.

Yes, I have not received any report (neither positive or negative), yet.

If second scsi bus handling method was problem, it may be easy to fix.

# There are other problems, for example, NetBSD MI SCSI cannot handle 
# target >= 8.

I've heard the driver works with 2940UW on FreeBSD, so it should work
on NetBSD, too.

The driver currently only works on -current. But we can port it to 1.1.
If you need it, please mail me.
