<EM>&gt; I am using RedHat 6.2, with all the relevant update RPMs, plus a stock
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Linux 2.2.18 kernel I needed to get USB working (not for the scanner,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; though). My scanner is an Acer 610+ (SCSI) connected to its own private
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Adaptec 2840 card (aic7xxx.o driver, as a module).
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
I am using a 610+ under kernel 2.2.16-4 with a 53c1010 Symbios card, same
<BR>
xsane and snapscan (I think, I am not sure how to verify snapscan version,
<BR>
the tarball I had around was that version).
<BR>
I don't have the pause problems. I did set under xsane standard options the
<BR>
colour lines per read to maximum, I sort of remember that low values caused
<BR>
problems but a quick test now (300 dpi 8.5x11) seemed to still work.
<BR>
<P>The problem I am seeing is some vertical banding in solid colors. It
<BR>
looks like the scanner calibration is not being done. Under windows at
<BR>
the begining of the scan it seems to do an extra step that I don't get
<BR>
under Linux. I never found a way of capturing the scsi commands being sent
<BR>
under Windows 98 to figure out what the problem was. Since I use it most
<BR>
for black and white scans I haven't really looked into it.
<BR>
<P>Other things I have done that is different but probably is not related
<BR>
to your problem:
<BR>
I modified the snapscan driver to support my sheet feeder.
<BR>
When I added some other external devices to the scanner scsi chain they
<BR>
were having errors. I found some capacitors inside the scanner acrooss
<BR>
the scsi lines which I desoldered so it could be terminated better.
<BR>
<P>If you have anything useful for me to test/look at for you email me.
<BR>
<P>Thanks,
<BR>
