[sane-devel] Fail to detect the SCSI card

[m. allan noah]

dude, you need to buy a book on linux. there is no module called sg0 or 
sg1, etc. there is a module called just sg

i am running FC2, kernel 2.6.8-1.521 and there already is a module for 
your scsi card:

find /lib/modules/2.6.8-1.521/ | grep aha
/lib/modules/2.6.8-1.521/kernel/drivers/scsi/aha1542.ko
