Hi Gerhard,
installing the plustek-driver (new computer, Suse Linux 7.2., Kernel
2.4-4, OpticPro 9630P) as recommended I got in the beginning no
problems. Building and installing pt_drv it was fine, but loading the
module causes problems:
sbin/modprobe pt_drv || exit 1
/lib/modules/2.4.4-4GB/misc/pt_drv.o: init_module: Success
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters,
including invalid IO or IRQ parameters
/lib/modules/2.4.4-4GB/misc/pt_drv.o: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.4-4GB/misc/pt_drv.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.4-4GB/misc/pt_drv.o: insmod pt_drv failed
I checked the parport-adress and the interupt. All is quite correct in
/etc/modules.conf.
So I tried to recompile the kernel with the IEEE 1284 autodetection
disabled - your hint for Roy Wood. But Suse-Linux seems to be a little
more complicate than Red Hat. I failed to recompile the kernel, and I
don't want to try it again. It won't be fit for the list discussing the
specifications for the SuSE-Kernel either.
My question: is there anything left to do but recompiling the Kernel?
What could be wrong?
