I think you are right! Try to find out what type of scsi-card you have
installed. May be Win helps you with some information from device
manager, more or less the scsi chip is the decisive information you
should get.

With this information you should tell RH to load the appropriate driver
for that card. It=B4s very likely that Xsane will work afterwards.

Good luck!
