Hi,

<EM>&gt; problem=When I installed Mandrake 7.1 I was able to indicate that the

<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.
</EM><BR>
<P>Is there any info about your card in dmesg|less or /var/log/messages?
<BR>
My aha2940 is supported by the driver &quot;aic7xxx&quot; and I think both your
<BR>
internal 7881 and your PCI 2940UW should work with this driver. I'm
<BR>
not sure if you need to give any kernel options to let the driver
<BR>
recognize both SCSI adapters but I don't think so.
<BR>
<P><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.
</EM><BR>
<P>That's ok. The BIOS is only needed if you want to boot from a SCSI
<BR>
disk on this controller. But you should see the scanner identification
<BR>
before the &quot;bios not installed&quot; message. The scanner must be turned on
<BR>
before the computer boots. If you can't see a line with the scanner
<BR>
identification on startup, probably something is wrong with your
<BR>
cables, termination or scanner.
<BR>
<P><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>
<P>When your scanner is recognized by your SCSI-adapter (cat
<BR>
/proc/scsi/scsi will print something about your scanner) start reading
<BR>
the README file in the SANE distribution and man sane-hp.
<BR>
<P>Bye,
<BR>
