The scsi contoller is an adaptec 2920 which is a PCI SCSI-2 controller based off
of the future domain chipset. I am using kernel 2.2.13, so I would have to
imagine that the driver is up to date, I'll have to check the maintainer. As for
disconnect being disabled I'm not sure how to check that. It's not an optionin
the kernel configuration, and I have usually left most of the scsi stuff alone.
