Several things come to mind:
- Have you googled for that card + Linux to see whether this problem
has been encountered (and maybe solved) by others?
- You could also search the archives of the Sane mailing list, as sane
is the scanner software used on Linux.
- Do you know whether that card has any possibilities to assign IRQ/IO
port? If so, have you played with that?
- Have you tried without the CD reader/burner (especially without
their module)?
That's all I can think of at the moment...
Cheerio,
