Can't access Jazz or Zip SCSI on 7.1

Hi: I have SCSI Jazz and Zip drives. They are hooked to a controller with Advansys ASC3050B chip. On Suse 6.2 I used modprobe advansys and these devices worked just fine. Now running 7.1 with the 2.2.18 kernel, the modprobe takes a very long time and fails to access the devices. /proc/partitions shows a long list of empty partitions. The physical drives are never accessed (no blinking lights). In short, advansys SCSI is broken! Any idea how to fix this? I considered just trying the 2.4 kernel, but that won't boot. Some probelm with the IDE drives. I will write another email about that. Thanks for comments. -- _______________________ Christopher R. Carlen Sr. Laser/Optical Tech. Sandia National Labs
