3ware 9500 FC3 Kernel 2.6.11-1.27 X86_64 rpm

[System Administrator]

For any of you having trouble with 3ware 9500 driver updates on FC3 to 3ware codeset 9.2, I have a kernel SRPM and RPM for X86_64 smp kernel 2.6.11-1.27.  If you need it, send me an email off list.  This gets rid of all error messages, cosmetic and otherwise.  Seems to be a bit faster than previous codesets as well.  According to 3ware, these fixes will be incorporated into the 2.6.12 kernel.  Problems with stock FC3 3ware drivers dictated that I could not wait for 2.6.12.

hdparm -Tt results are as follows:

 Timing cached reads:   3340 MB in  2.00 seconds = 1670.25 MB/sec
 Timing buffered disk reads:  366 MB in  3.01 seconds = 121.49 MB/sec
