What does it take to cause a SCSI device to be recognized by the kernel
after boot time.
Problem here is that I'm using a scanner - seldome used. If it is turned
on at boot time, it can be turned off and will be recognized by the kernel
when I go to scan. But, if it fail to turn on the scanner at boot time,
the kernel knows nothing of it and I have to reboot to use the scanner - a
drag.
Is there a way to get the kernel to take a look at the SCSI devices after
boot time, so I can talk to t he scanner even it it wasn't on at boot
time?
Thank you.
