Hi William,
<BR>
<P>I cant help you directly with the SCSI-card. But did you check the file
<BR>
/usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi/README.aic7xxx ? There is a hint about a
<BR>
webpage and a mailing list for the driver of the SCSI-card.
<BR>
You have solved the problem when you get a printout like
<BR>
<P>root:/ &gt; cat /proc/scsi/scsi
<BR>
Attached devices:
<BR>
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 03 Lun: 00
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;Vendor: HP Model: C5110A Rev: 3638
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;Type: Processor ANSI SCSI revision: 02
<BR>
root:/ &gt;
<BR>
<P>At that point you can try to start (x)scanimage or xsane.
<BR>

<EM>&gt; I realize that this may not be the appropriate place to ask the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; following question, but I don't know where to turn now that technical
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; support from McMillan (Mandrake 7.1) blew me off. I simply want to get
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; my system configured so that I can use my HP 5P scanner on my linux
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; computer. I need simple directions to get the SCSI card work and to
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; configure SANE to run my scanner. If there is a better forum for me,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; please advise. Below is an edited version of the question I posed to
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; McMillan.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; summary=Getting SCSI card to run HP 5P scanner
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; problem=When I installed Mandrake 7.1 I was able to indicate that the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; computer had an Adaptec AHA 2940 UU W bios SCSI card. I had hoped to
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; attach my HP 5P scanner to this card. When I went to run xscanimage or
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; scanimage, I get the message that no scanner is attached. I then went
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; to the program (HardDrake ??) that identifies hardware on your computer.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; My Adaptec AIC-7881U card shows, the AHA 2940UUW does not. The later
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; is the card with the 50 pin adaptor that is consistent with the scanner.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; I notice when I boot the computer ( a Compaq) that the computer sees
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; the AHA 2940 but does not turn on or install the bios on the card. My
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; wife is on my case to get the scanner running. I believe I have 2
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; options, but am not sure how to proceed.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; 1. Possibly I need to get the bios on the AHA 2940 to turn on when the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; computer boots. But I am not sure how to do it.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; 2. I could possibly purchase an internal to external cable for the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; AIC-7881U and mount the external 50 pin adapter in the opening for an
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; expansion card.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Please advise as to what would be the route most likely to get the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; scanner recognized so that I can use it to scan some material and the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; steps I need to follow to get the system up and running. Thanks.
</EM><BR>
