Hi,<br>
<p>
This isn't really a sane issue, but I'm not presently sure where<br>
else to go for help. I'm *hoping* there's a nice answer to this.<br>
<p>
My scanner (AGFA SnapScan 600 on its AHA1505AE) just stopped<br>
mid-scan and try as I may I can't get it to come back. I suspect<br>
that there is a hard fault (is there any way I can test that?).<br>
<p>
Since it died I've tried various tricks to bring it back to<br>
life including "echo add-single-etc...", "echo remove-...",<br>
reboots, and so on. Mostly these appear to do nothing significant.<br>
<p>
BTW, I've always had a problem with the scsi-generic driver<br>
attaching the scanner to /dev/sga at bootup, rather than<br>
/dev/sgg, so I add the scanner later using the "echo" trick.<br>
<p>
My suspicion that the scanner itself may be sick is fuelled by<br>
the following entries from syslog.<br>
<p>
When it worked....<br>
<p>

Dec 7 15:32:19 mellifera linux: Type: Scanner ANSI SCSI revision: 02<br>
-----------8&lt;-----------------------------------------------------<br>
<p>
Now it doesn't work....<br>

-----------8&lt;-----------------------------------------------------<br>
<p>
So it can see it's scanner, but can't actually get an ident<br>
from it. Any idea what's going on here, how I can check things,<br>
or where I should look/go for help?<br>
<p>
Thanks, regards,<br>
Gordon.<br>
