<i>&gt; I have been desperatedly working in the past 2 days on having the</i><br>
<i>&gt; Adaptec AVA-1502AE (not simply AVA-1502E: 1st question:</i><br>
<i>&gt; IS THERE ANY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE 2?) recognized by linux. </i><br>
<p>
I do not think so. Adaptec cards are fairly compatible. At least,<br>
if they only differ in one letter ...<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; My attempts failed. I tried both with sg and aha152x compiled into </i><br>
<i>&gt; the kernel with a lilo command line AND with the modularized version </i><br>
<i>&gt; of the 3 scsi modules (scsi_mod sg and aha152x).</i><br>
<i>&gt; I suppose in both cases I provided the wrong configuration line.</i><br>
<p>
Can't say much about that. Maybe. That's an awful lot of parameters<br>
these drivers get.<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; In the manual I have 5 jumpers, IRQ9, IRPQ10, IRQ11, IRQ12 and ALT.</i><br>
<i>&gt; On the card I have:</i><br>
<i>&gt; INT0</i><br>
<i>&gt; INT1</i><br>
<i>&gt; IRQ12</i><br>
<i>&gt; IRQ11</i><br>
<i>&gt; IRQ10</i><br>
<i>&gt; IRQ9</i><br>
<p>
I am pretty sure, that INT0/INT1 do not have anything to do with <br>
interrupts, because<br>
<p>
1. all others are called IRQ. Why should these be called INT ?<br>
2. IRQ0 and 1 are taken by timer/keyboard.<br>
<p>
If you do not have the "ALT" Jumper (which normally selects the base-<br>
address, IIRC between 0x140 and 0x340, maybe the INT jumpers are the <br>
replacement allowing for more addresses. What does the kernel say, when <br>
you try to insert the module ? The error message (look in /var/log, <br>
if you see none) would be very helpful ...<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; Another question is: do you need in /etc/conf.modules the entries 'alias</i><br>
<i>&gt; sga sg' and 'scsi_hostadapter aha152x'??</i><br>
<p>
If you want automatic module loading, yes. At least for the scsi_hostadapter<br>
line. The sga/sg line isn't needed on my system ...<br>
<p>
