Hi All,
I have been given an aged Nikon Coolscan III scanner, which although old is better that any other method of scanning negatives I've currently got!
It's a SCSI scanner and all I've got is a laptop. I have an equally old PCMCIA SCSI card. The setup doesn't work! The SCSI card used to work just fine with what was probably Mandrake back then! It seems to be recognised by the system as a dmesg log line is produced. Harddrake2 reports the device as being unrecognised despite apparently being associated with a kernel module.
So step 1, please can anyone help me to get the PCMCIA card working or suggest a PCMCIA SCSI card that's known to work. The scanner is of such an age that I don't want to spend huge amounts just to get a vintage item working!Equally I love a challenge
Thanks,
