Hello all!
I'm new to gentoo and scsi, but not linux.
I have a tekram dc390u3w scsi controller and a seagate hard drive connected to it.

I can't load the ncr53cxx module, I keep getting errors.

Anyone have ideas? :oops:

Try moving the scsi card into a different PCI slot. I had the same problem, and it turned out to be an irq conflict. To of my PCI devices got mapped onto the same irq, moving the card fixed this.

Thanks!, you know that might be itt. I had a problem with the drive dropping down to narrow U2 instead of full U160. Someone else suggested I move the slot as well.
I did it last night and it works at full speed now, I'll try to install again this weekend.
Thanks again!
