You are in luck! Maybe, this worked for me but I can not guarantee anything
so follow these instructions at your own risk ;-). I just spent a day
beating my head against the wall but I finally got it to work this morning.
You are probably running into a combination BIOS and kernal module issues.
1) That card has an IRQ jumper setting. Mine is jumpered to the default of
11. Check
the jumper and note the IRQ. Make sure this does not conflict with
anyting.
2) Go into your BIOS's plug and play setup. If you have autoconfiguration
you will
probably need to turn it off. When you do, make sure that the IRQ for
the adaptor
in my case 11, is set to ISA. Not PCI/ISA. On my system I had to
switch it
from PCI/ISA to "legacy ISA".
I believe the reason for this was that the HA3510 which is an OEM of
the AHA1510
has no BIOS so it is not probable by the BIOS. The BIOS does not see
it and defaults
the IRQ to PCI which was giving me an error when I ran the insmod
command
which I will describe below.
3) Save any BIOS changes and boot into Linux.
4) run insmod by hand: my command looks like this:
insmod aha152x aha152x=0x340,11,7,1
That should do the trick. I think it does not autoload the module
because again this
card is brain dead and can't be probed. I have not tried building a
kernel with
the aha152x built into it. Note, I got the 0x340 from Windows, but
according to the
SCSI mini howto (in the unmaintained section) there are only two
possible values for
this card, 0x340 and 0x140. If you installed the HOWTOs check out
file:///usr/doc/HOWTO/unmaintained/SCSI-HOWTO.
