The jumpers are set for io=0x340 irq=9. I dual boot win98se on this machine and it sets up ok, so the card works. I tried modprobe with the correct paramaters and it still won't load. I disabled devfs in case that was the problem but still no go. Does anyone know of a different card that would work with this scanner ,a Microtek ScanMaker E3? If I can get this to work I can kick Windoze off my machine.
