</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> I've been having great problems with the new aic drivers in the 2.4.x
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> kernel and my scanner. This particular scanner is a Polariod SprintScan
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> 35+ which sane does not support. I use vuescan with it (and sane for my
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> HP IIIc).
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>>
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> In contacting the aic mailing list, they insist that the problems I have
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> are related to my software. The author of the software took debugging
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> logs of the old driver, and the new driver, and gave me a report of the
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> differences. When I presented this to the aic mailing list, they didn't
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> give it any attention.
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>>
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> So my point is this: the old driver works (I can still boot 2.2.18 and
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> use my scaner), but the new driver seems to have some real problems.

|
|
<BR>
|

<BR>

|
|
<BR>
|

/etc/modules.conf by chaning the aic7xxx entry to aic7xxx_old and the box

decided not to get past the 'detecting new hardware' prompt. I had to edit

the file back again for the box to boot OK.
|

|
