Re: [newbie] How do I install my scanner Umax S-6E?
Hello Martin
Excuse the delay in giving a return your message. I went to the place
that you indicated me and
I read the configurations for Umax and, finally, I understood what was
the scsi genric card. I thought that was a module to be carried by the
kernel, but, actually, it is the form like Sane works with the scsi
card of Umax. I followed the recommendations and, finally, my scanner
worked in Linux Mandrake. I only need, now, to find the best options of
configuration of the card. In fact, I take advantage of to ask somebody
that has the same scanner could send me the options used to configure
it, it would abbreviate the time I spend with the attempts.
I thank your help a lot, as the one of the other companions that
answered. Forced to all.

From the Sane umax-scsi documentation at
http://www.Wolfsburg.DE/~rauch/sane/sane-umax-config-doc.html
It shows to use a driver for an NCR5380 SCSI controller. The sample command
they show is
insmod g_NCR5380 ncr_irq=255 ncr_addr=0x280 dtc_3181e=1
You may have to play around with the ncr_addr part. They list a whole bunch
of IO addresses the controller card can use.

Hi
Thank you for your concern. I had already seen Sane and in its
documents I read that was necessary that the kernel should have the
module for a generic scsi board, for that I asked the list if somebody
knows which is that module and as I do to carry him/it. Who can me that
to answer he/she would thank.

Joao,
Before spending the money on a new SCSI card, go to the SANE page and
try
their drivers. They list your scanner and the controller it comes with
as
supported.. Their site is at http://www.mostang.com/sane/

Hello
Thank you very much for the information and for the attention.
It is
a
sad news, but I will take your advice because, I find, this will be
the
only form of doing my scanner to work. But, even so, I would like
something to know on which module for a generic board scsi, do you
know?
Thank you again.

The SCSI board that ships with the S-6E is a completely worthless
piece
of crap and should be tossed into the nearest trash can. Pick up a
cheap Adaptec and install the kernel drivers for it and you'll be
fine
with that scanner. I used to run the same here with an AHA-1524
card
(at least, I think that was the number of the card, it's been
awhile).
