The g_NCR5380 driver does _not_ autodetect your card, you have to provide
the I/O port (or memory address) and possibly the IRQ manually. NCR5380
cards also come in two flavours, one uses an I/O port and the other uses
a memory address; the driver needs to be recompiled to switch between
these two modes. Most distributions provide a module compiled for I/O ports,
since this configuration seems to be the most common. Since you said that
your card works with Windows, the easiest thing is to simply look at the
configuration in Windows device manager tool. If you just try port
adresses at random with this driver, the machine usually locks up.

No, once correctly loaded, the NCR5380 driver simply becomes scsi1.
