hea Posted June 12, 2003 Report Share Posted June 12, 2003 I have tried to connect a hp-4c scanner to an Avantec pci SCSI card. I can verify during boot that the card recognizes the scanner, and the card seems to be reprted ok in harddrake, but the 'cat /proc/scsi/scsi' only reports the cdwriter and reader. No trace of the scanner at this point. Does anyone have an idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hea Posted June 12, 2003 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2003 Edit: the SCSI card is: "Advansys 3925" and the drivers are as far as i have read, supposed to be in the kernel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonMage Posted June 13, 2003 Report Share Posted June 13, 2003 Can you do lsmod as root and tell me whether advansys.o is loaded? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hea Posted June 13, 2003 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2003 ...finally home. Lets see lsmod... no, no trace of advansys.o. So it inserted although harddrake listed it. How can i fix this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonMage Posted June 13, 2003 Report Share Posted June 13, 2003 Try modprobe advansys as root Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hea Posted June 13, 2003 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2003 Yes, works fine now! Thanks! Should the modprobe command be inserted in say /etc/modules.conf to load at bootup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonMage Posted June 13, 2003 Report Share Posted June 13, 2003 just put the word advansys in the /etc/modules , that should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
