[S.u.S.E. Linux] Adaptec 2940 scsi controler
Hi All I'm tyring get my adaptec 2940 scsi controler to work in SuSE 5.1. I recompiled the latest 2.0.33 kernel (actually downloaded it from the suse ftp site, from the 5.2 version). I enabled the driver for the scsi controler modular (aic7xxx driver) and I enabled the scsi cdrom device modular, as well. The compiliation went well I re-booted my machine and no scsi controler was detected (so I didn't worry too much). I then login in as root and preceeded to manually install the scsi controler driver using this command 'insmod aic7xxx.o', then the trouble begain. I couldn't get the prompt (I had to bring up another xterm) I couldn't 'kill' the PID# pertaining to the command 'insmod aic7xxx.o' and the system load started to rise. Thus, I had to shut the system down and reboot. I believe I did everything right as far as the compiliation of the kernel and enabling the right drivers. I just don't know what could be causing this to happen. If anyone has suggestion as to what might be causing this problem and a solution to go along with it, please feel free to respone. Thank you in advance for your help. Regards, -Chris -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
