I also have a 53c400A scsi card that says HP ScanJet on it.  Should it use
interrupts or not?  And is it port mapped or memory mapped?  There's a
couple jumpers on it but I'm not sure what they do.  The card works in
Windows, and it says the settings are IRQ 7 and IO ports 280-28F.
Everytime I try to load the driver in linux though, my system freezes
completely, with no error messages.   I tried variations of the line:

modprobe g_NCR5380 ncr_irq=7 ncr_addr=0x280 ncr_53c400=1

and it always freezes.  Anyone have any idea of how to get this driver
working?

Thanks,
