:-) thanks for the response! I think that until I can afford to replace the CDRW, that I am going to be begrudgingly satisfied to just use it under windoz as much as I loath that idea. The scanner will not be supported by the sane folks, it is apparently an ancient version of the Plustek U12 that they don't plan to support :-(. The last time I tried this CDRW (AccessTek CW1601) under linux, I had the only hard system crash I can remember (in linux). The system hung solid requiring multiple power cycles before it would re-boot and the CDRW that was in there (this one is a replacement) never worked reliably after that and eventually just died. It seems horribly unlikely that linux would have had this affect on the drive (or vice-versa) but I lack development funds to experiment :-). Things are improving, I only have three things left that require windoz and will replace two of them as soon as I can and the third on the author is working at porting to linux :-).
