This is a tough nut to crack. You have parport support in kernel though not sure if SLIP support is also statically compiled. It is normally the next few lines on dmesg. It is detecting some- thing on IRQ7. 'cat /proc/dma' will tell you what has been set by the kernel. Is your scanner using dma 7? What does the manual of your scanner state regarding usage under Linux ?
