I recently tried to upgrade to kernel 2.2.1 from 2.0.34 . The scanner had been working great. After upgrade (kernel only), find-scanner found the scanner, attempting to scan caused some action in the scanner, then I lost keyboard and mouse control. While rebooting (with reset button) the scanner sounded like it was completing the scan. Reinstalling 2.0.34 kernel brought everything back as it was. It'll stay that way for a while:-)
A search on dejanews showed me that others have had similar problems, but I found no solution. Kernels were compiled by make-kpkg kernel_image. I did reset the SG_BIG_BUFF as recommended in "man sane-scsi" My system: Debian slink ncr53c810 scsi umax 1200S scanner I'll be searching the debian-user archive for replies, but I would appreciate a copy to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
