ok, just setup a new box, fc6, most of the updates in place; I have an adaptec PCI scsi controller which I had working back with FC2 or so, but restaged this box as I got new hardware. I have that card and a scsi tape ait 35 lvd which I used for backups (swearing I used amanda) which now doesn't look right.
So as the subject states, step1 is check / get the hardware verified, then I assume step 2 over to software for a gui app to backup.
with that, here is the following required items; uname shows; 2.6.20-1.2962.fc6
the /sbin/lspci;

I don't see the SCSI card and/or tape drive, but not even sure how it will appear, so thank you for any help or suggestions.
ok, reseted the card which now gave me the adaptec bios screen. Did recieve a nice bug buddy popup which I closed b4 saving, but updated some packages, reset and did get one new one on start;
udev: disabling IRQ #18
After that, nothing else, and no errors on login. The dmsg shows alot of errors on that device, see below;
