A while ago I complained that I could not get a future domain
to work with my Umax Vista S8 scanner.

Well I foobared the system and did a vanilla RedHat 5.1 Install.

I now have my NCR no parity (from an early mac I think) 1X Cdrom
attached an it works fine.

When I boot, I see the Umax at Scsi 3., and the CDROM at 5.

But when fdomain loads I see the CDROM only.

This is not dual boot.

I do not have a spare scsi driver at the moment, but I have
had this scanner work under NT with an onboard apatec, and
the UDS freebie (to which I attached my Jaz as well!).


BTW I do hear the scanner do its "must make noise to tell
scsi card that I am here" when I load the driver.
