Have you enabled SCSI support when you compiled your new kernel? Or did
you just drop in a pre-compiled one from a .deb package?

Chances are that the kernel you're running doesn't have SCSI support
enabled - compile a new one, and include your card drivers, SCSI generic
support, SCSI tape support & SCSI cd-rom support - bob's your uncle.
