<i>&gt; - 128k SCSI buffer</i><br>
<p>
<i>&gt; The scanner is a MFS-12000SP which says</i><br>
<i>&gt; Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 06 Lun: 00</i><br>
<i>&gt; Vendor: SCANNER Model: Rev: 1.00</i><br>
<i>&gt; Type: Scanner ANSI SCSI revision: 01 CCS</i><br>
Here I have :<br>
<p>
Vendor: MUSTEK Model: MFS-12000SP Rev: 1.00<br>
Type: Scanner ANSI SCSI revision: 01<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; The problem is that about every 128kBytes in the image 1 or two scan</i><br>
<i>&gt; lines of garbage seem to be added (I think sometimes lines are</i><br>
<i>&gt; missing, too).</i><br>
This is probably due to a bad color-correction scheme. I added an alternate<br>
scheme for my scanner which doesn't use backtracking, but sends R,G,B at<br>
1/72" offset. The correction code influences particularly the start and<br>
end of a complete SCSI Buffer. Please check out, if the following section<br>
of code gets activated for you :<br>
<p>
/* Revision 1.00 of the MFS-12000SP firmware is buggy and needs<br>
this workaround. Maybe others need it too, but this one is<br>
for sure. We know for certain that revision 1.02 or newer<br>
has this bug fixed. */<br>
if (fw_revision &lt; 0x102)<br>
dev-&gt;flags |= MUSTEK_FLAG_LD_MFS;<br>
<p>
Then change it to be (de-)activated depending on what was the state before.<br>
<p>
I suppose this should correct the problem. please report what happened, so <br>
we can add auto-detection. MUSTEK should be shot for not counting up <br>
Firmware-Revision ...<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; The distorted lines also appear in modes other than Color. I'm pretty</i><br>
<i>&gt; sure (90%) that I had a similar distortion when I once had the scanner</i><br>
<i>&gt; connected to the NCR53C400 card.</i><br>
This shouldn't happen. Please check, if 10% are the case ;-)<br>
The correction code which is the most probable cause, is only activated in<br>
color mode.<br>
<p>
CU,Andy<br>
