This is my first post to this mailing list.
I've just bought a Nikon CoolScan II scanner, and a SCSI board to plug
it in my PC. I've tried both a Tekram DC390U, and now an Adaptec
2940AU.
The Tekram works, but only before I start XFree86 (using a PCI video
board STB Velocity 3D) !!
For the 2940AU, I've tried with two versions of software :
* Linux 2.0.32 (driver aic7xxx)
* Linux 2.0.35 patched for driver aic7xxx version 5.1.0pre5.
The results are worst than with the Tekram: with 2.0.32, I get an
infinite loop of reset/abort SCSI messages. With 2.0.35 I get the
following (and then the kernel is stuck) :
command : insmod aic7xxx aic7xxx='verbose:0x1FFFF'
(this text has been copied by hand, so there may be some
differences with the original output, regarding the spaces)

Both cards and scanner work perfectly under NT 4.0 with the
appropriate drivers.
I've tried several combination of settings for the main board BIOS as
well as for the SCSI cards BIOS, but when it changes something, it is
worst!!
Please help me (I am browsing Dejanews, the web, reading READMEs etc
for a week yet) !!!!
Thank you a lot for your help
Frederic
