    Sorry for my two last email. Now I am more precise.

    I have a DTC3181e card for my Mustek scanner. My kernel recognizes the
    card
    but doesn't work because it is blocked.

    I have in my /etc/lilo.conf the line

    append = "dtc3181e=0x280,3" (interrupt 3 because in my /proc/interrupts
    the number 3
    is free).

    My kernel find the card with the lines:

    scsi 0: at port 0x280 irq 3 options CAN_QUEUE=16........
    scsi 0: Generic NCR5380/53C400 driver
    scsi : 1 host

    and then it blocks here.

    What can I do?
