>From this information, you still need to load the aic7xxx module which is the driver for the 2930 (and many other Adaptec controllers.)
As root do "modprobe aic7xxx' and it should detect and make the appropriate entries in /var/log/messages (and dmesg I think will show it.) For this I either run another xterm or log in as root on a virtual terminal and 'less /var/log/messages'. Press the space bar until you see END highlighted and then give it a capital "F". shift+f. This will put less into follow mode (anyone know a command line parameter to do this? I think it was -f, but that's never worked for me.) I get: kernel: scsi0 : Adaptec AIC7XXX EISA/VLB/PCI SCSI HBA DRIVER, Rev 6.2.5 kernel: <Adaptec 2930CU SCSI adapter> keytable: Loading system font: succeeded kernel: aic7860: Ultra Single Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 3/253 SCBs kernel: Vendor: IOMEGA Model: ZIP 250 Rev: H.41 kernel: Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 That's just a Zip drive. You're will list the scanner (and whatever else is on the buss). But note that it will show up as "scsi1:". Happy scanning. Patrick On Thu, 2002-05-30 at 12:58, Ricardo J.
