I have, but I don't remember the details.  Basically, there are two 
versions of the Dapper install ISO's: 6.06 and 6.06.1.  I believe that 
the driver in 6.06.1 will detect the RAID controller correctly but the 
one in 6.06.  Or the other way around.

What I do remember is that one of them worked and the other did not.
