Thanks for your suggestions Tom nut it doesn't seem to work. I'm using KDE as my desktop and can't seem to find the kernel configuration tool on it. I've tried using kernelcfg from the command line and that program isn't found. Do you know where KDE has it's kernel config tool?

If you don't see the aha1541 listed, it isn't loaded. If it is listed, make sure that you have the proper base address and irq settings correct. You may have to pass it some options. My etc/modules.conf shows these two lines for the Adaptec: alias scsi_hostadapter aha1542 options aha1542 aha1542=0x130 (0x130 is the base address for my card - the normal default is 0x330) Try the Gnome Control Panel. Select kernel configuration, and add or edit the module there. (Running kernelcfg in an xterm does the same thing.) Also, do a man lsmod, or man modprobe for further reading.
