This module is part of the standard set of modules installed by debian, so you do not have to compile it your self or get any tgz from the web, I think. Just start modconf and install the module (under scsi), maybe you've got to user some parameters (irq=xx or so). If you have problems with the latter, you can install the kernel-doc-2.2.19 package (just apt-get it) and read the documentation of the module at /usr/doc/kernel-doc-2.2.19/Documentation/. If you have any further problems, just contact me. Cheers, Stephan
