SCSI drivers

[Taylor, Neville]

I posted a question about this a while ago but got little response so now I'm trying again.

 

I'm trying to install a Adaptec 2940 host adapter.

 

When I do "modprobe aic7xxx"

/lib/modules/2.4.18-3/kernel/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7xxx.o: init_module: No such device

/lib/modules/2.4.18-3/kernel/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7xxx.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.18-3/kernel/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7xxx.o failed

/lib/modules/2.4.18-3/kernel/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7xxx.o: insmod aic7xxx failed

 

This looks to me like the system can't see the card but  m /proc/pci file has an entry that looks like

Bus 0, device 8, function 0:
Class ffff: Adaptec AHA-294x / AIC- 7871 ( rev 255)
    IRQ 11

    Master Capable. Latency=255. Min Gnt=255.Max Lat=255
    I/O at 0xfc00 [0xfcff]

    Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0x3efff000 [0x3effffff]

 

which implies it can see the card.

 

I realise no-one's going to want to get involved with specifics but if anyone can point me in the right direction I'd be really grateful.

 

Thanks
