Author SymBios SCSI assistance...

Howdy ya'll,
I am having a bit of a time with a symbios pci scsi card... It appears
as if the driver is attempting to load but get's a "phase mismatch". The
scsi card in question is a LSI8953u card and we have an Exabyte VXA-2
sitting on it. It is the only device connected to the scsi card.

Thanks in advance!

Here is the relevent part of dmesg:
