If this is of any use, this is what I get when I cat /proc/pci. My Tekram DC390U is two SCSI controllers on the one card, hence it appearing twice.

I'm running Kernel 2.4.10 on a Duron 600 if that helps

Have you tryed using the sym53c8xx kernel module instead of the ncr53c8xx. This is an updated driver, your old one may be having problems controling your new writer.
Thanks Chris.
I seem to remember using the sym53c8xx driver in the past, but when I try to load it now I get:
/lib/modules/2.4.13/kernel/drivers/scsi/sym53c8xx.o: init_module: No such deviceHint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters /lib/modules/2.4.13/kernel/drivers/scsi/sym53c8xx.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.13/kernel/drivers/scsi/sym53c8xx.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.13/kernel/drivers/scsi/sym53c8xx.o: insmod sym53c8xx failed
From 'cat /proc/pci' I get:
Bus 0, device 11, function 0: Non-VGA unclassified device: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic (formerly NCR) 53c810 (rev 1). IRQ 10. Master Capable. Latency=64. I/O at 0xd800 [0xd8ff]. Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xefffff00 [0xefffffff].
It is quite an old SCSI card and I don't think the card does more than 10Mb/s but I though SCSI devices were supposed to negotiate all these things.
I wonder if the sym53c8xx driver has changed significantly between kernel 2.2 and the 2.4.13 I am running now.
