&gt;=======================================================
&gt;
&gt;Thanks for your reply, but &quot;modprobe advansys&quot; was of course the first thing I 
&gt;tried (as root) and it was &quot;not found&quot;. Checking 
&gt;/lib/modules/kernel/drivers/scsi reveals that indeed the &quot;advansys&quot; module is 
&gt;not listed. Your distribution must be different from mine or I am getting 
&gt;senile. My kernel version is 2.6.9-1.667. Is there a way I could get hold of 
&gt;your &quot;advansys&quot; module? TIA, Cor van Dijk
