Hi,

scanning with SANE with my scanner UMAX Astra 610S connected to my 
Dawicontrol DC-2974 PCI card and the tmscsim driver copiled
into my 2.2.5 kernel causes the SCSI card to hang, i.e.
when I try to acquire a preview with xscanimage, the scanner
starts but hangs shortly before completion. After a certain
time (several minutes) I tried to query the SCSI cards with the
program scsiinq: then I get a SCSI timeout frome the card and
the scanner moves back to the initial position, but the scan
software has lost the connection to the device, produces only
SCSI timeouts. Only a shutdown with power off can cure this 
(Reset doesn�t help).


Output from /var/log/messages:

Jul 11 09:12:26 einstein kernel: Detected scsi generic sge at scsi1, channel 0, id 5,
lun 0


The scanner is the only device on this card, my harddisks and all other
devices are connected to an Adaptec 2940AU.

The alternate driver I found in my distribution (S.u.S.E. 6.1)
"AM53/79C974 (PC-SCSI) Linux driver ALPHA release 0.5, 19 November 1995"
by Drew Eckhardt and D. Frieauff works without problems in the same
configuration.
In both cases I use the default settigs without any lilo or kernel
parameters or mods via echo in /proc.

Since I would like to use more devices at the Dowicontrol card in near
future, I�d like to use the tmscsim driver, because it appears to me more
advanced, I�d happy about hints how to use it with my scanner.

Here some debug info:
