Hi John,

well first of all it doesn't matter if you have a old BIOS or not.
Each time you change the /etc/conf.modules file, you have to call
depmod
then everything is fine.
Next thing: unresolved symbols
Can you tell us which symbols are missing? 
Can you also please tell us which SANE-version and which driver-version
you're using?
