Well, the honeymoon is over. After a brief respite, the 3.0i driver on my
UDB is back to the old behavior. I (again) re-installed the 2.5f
driver and it works fine. I am not seeing the same misbehavior reported
by others (message reject, etc.), it's a simple device timeout on the
Maxtor 540SL drive that seemingly never recovers.
Originally, I thought that the 2.5f driver was also broken with 2.1.124,
but it was my error in configuration - sorry for the misleading input.
