I have a Western Digital PCI SCSI controller, when I cat /proc/pci I see the
following:


PCI devices found:
  Bus  0, device   0, function  0:
    Host bridge: Intel Corporation 430FX - 82437FX TSC [Triton I] (rev 2).
      Master Capable.  Latency=32.
  Bus  0, device   7, function  0:
    ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82371FB PIIX ISA [Triton I] (rev 2).
  Bus  0, device   7, function  1:
    IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82371FB PIIX IDE [Triton I] (rev 2).
      Master Capable.  Latency=32.
      I/O at 0x3000 [0x300f].
  Bus  0, device  17, function  0:
    Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139 (rev 16).
      IRQ 9.
      Master Capable.  Latency=32.  Min Gnt=32.Max Lat=64.
      I/O at 0x6000 [0x60ff].

  Bus  0, device  18, function  0:
    SCSI storage controller: Western Digital 33C296A (rev 0).
      IRQ 11.
      Master Capable.  Latency=32.  Min Gnt=5.Max Lat=6.
      I/O at 0x6100 [0x61ff].
      Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xf4001000 [0xf40010ff].
  Bus  0, device  19, function  0:
    VGA compatible controller: 3Dfx Interactive, Inc. Voodoo 3 (rev 1).
      IRQ 10.
      Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xf0000000 [0xf1ffffff].
      Prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xf2000000 [0xf3ffffff].
      I/O at 0x6200 [0x62ff].

Obviously, I the pci bus sees the controller but I don't have a /proc/scsi
directory at all and I don't have an /dev/sdX mounted anywhere on my box.
What do I need to do to get my SCSI drive so it's recognized on my linux
box?
