Hello! :)<br>
<p>
My system hangs when trying to scan an image using xscanimage --<br>
usually. I've got an Adaptec AVA-2902E PCI SCSI card (I'm using the<br>
aic7xxx kernel module -- is this correct?) and a Microtek Scanmaker X6EL<br>
with RedHat 5.1 and kernel 2.2.13, using microtek2 backend 0.8.<br>
<p>
The symptoms are:<br>
<p>
* Very occasionally, when I try to insert the aic7xxx kernel module,<br>
the system hangs. In addition, it always locks up for a couple of<br>
seconds while inserting the module but comes back out again fine.<br>
(I assume this is normal.)<br>
* The scanner is detected by the SCSI module just fine:<br>
<p>
[After typing "/sbin/modprobe aic7xxx":]<br>
tail /var/log/messages<br>
Nov 30 20:08:27 eng kernel: (scsi0) &lt;Adaptec AIC-7850 SCSI host adapter&gt; found at PCI 10/0<br>

<p>
* However, when I enter xscanimage and actually try to scan an image,<br>
the system (usually) hangs. Only two times have I gotten the<br>
scanner to actually scan something. One of those times, it scanned<br>
several images before hanging; the other time, it just scanned one.<br>
<p>
I tried to produce debug output via "xscanimage | tee saneoutput.txt"<br>
with SANE_DEBUG_MICROTEK2 set to 30 and SANE_DEBUG_SANEI_SCSI set to 1,<br>
but I guess it never flushed, because I ended up with a zero-length file<br>
(but piles of stuff spewed onto the screen).<br>
<p>
Anyway, any help you could give is very much welcome. My wife is<br>
threatening to take back the scanner if it doesn't start working<br>
reliably in the next couple of days. ;)<br>
<p>
