    Folks!
    I just got myself subscribed to this list in hopes I will be able to fix
    my Mustek ScanExpress 6000SP. I was handed in a machine and a scanner and
    told to install Linux on it if it's able to support this scanner. I read
    that it is and for many hours I am now trying to make it work.

    The card I am trying to fight is 6000SP's own cheap DOMEX SCSI card. My
    question is:

            1. Exactly what kernel driver should I use with this card?
               I tried dtc but whenever I did 'insmod dtc' it says that
               the device is busy. I seached Internet and found some words
               about g_NCR5380. I loaded the module like that:

                    % insmod g_NCR5380 ncr_addr=0x2c0 dtc_3181e=1

               because I read that this board is irq'less and I got ncr_adr
               prameter from Win98 (by the way the scanner does not work in Win98
               either). Anyway, it loaded the driver spat a lot of stuff on
               the screen about not being able to find hard disks which, I
               presume is ok. I then loaded sg module and tried to run
               'xscanimage /dev/sge' as SANE docs suggested. It did not work!
               
    So, if anyone has the scanner, I would very much appreciate any help
    because otherwide my boss gets sort of upset about Linux in general and...
    Huh, you know what that might mean...

    Thanks in advance,
                         Sergei
