Hi,

<EM>&gt; I have an old Mustek Paragon MFS-600CX (3-pass) which worked great
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; for years with SuSE Linux 5.0-6.1 and sane. Now I stupidly decided
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; to upgrade (i.e. new install) to SuSE Linux 7.0 which comes with
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; kernel 2.2.16 and sane 1.0.2.
</EM><BR>
<P>Please get a current version of SANE. 1.0.3 is the current stable
<BR>
version, 1.0.4 will be released in about two weeks. If I remember
<BR>
correctly, there was a bug concerning 3-pass scanners in xscanimage.
<BR>
Quite some bugfixes for the Mustek backend went into SAANE 1.0.3.
<BR>
<P>You can get the source code from <A HREF="http://www.mostang.com/sane/">http://www.mostang.com/sane/</A> .
<BR>
The Mustek backend homepage is at <A HREF="http://hmgt.home.pages.de/sane/">http://hmgt.home.pages.de/sane/</A>.
<BR>
<P>Are you sure that this scanner is called 600CX? I have only seen a
<BR>
MSF-6000 CX until now. When you have installed the new SANE, please
<BR>
send to me the result (dbg.out) of
<BR>
<P>SANE_DEBUG_MUSTEK=255 scanimage -L 2&gt;dbg.out
<BR>
<P><EM>&gt; Up to now, I used the scanner with the primitive NCR53c400 controller
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; which was shipped with it. When I found some timeout warings from
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; this card in the logfiles, I suspected some low-level SCSI problem
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; with the new kernel and repaced the card by an Adaptec AHA-1510.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; But this changed noting on the behaviour of the scanner.
</EM><BR>
<P>Maybe the timeout values are lower with 2.4.x. I think I have seen
<BR>
similar problems but haven't look to closely at this until now.
<BR>
<P><EM>&gt; I know, one solution would be to throw away the scanner and buy a
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; new one, but sice it has been serving me for years and it has a
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; larger scanarea compared to the new models I still like it and would
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; be very happy if it would be possible to convince it to
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; work again properly.
</EM><BR>
<P>My 6000CX works quite fine for me.
<BR>
<P>Bye,
<BR>
