Hi Greg, I would like to help fix it. Here is what I found out so far. After furter experimentation I found out that reloading usb-uhci right before using the USB scanner always allows me to use it. My current way of doing things is loading following modules on startup: usb-uhci input hid keybdev mousedev usb-storage sg scanner lp printer then when I need to use the scanner I have a script that does: sudo /sbin/rmmod usb-uhci sudo /sbin/modprobe usb-uhci sleep 15s xsane This convinces me that the problem lies in usb-uhci (uhci as well). If I can be of any assistance please let me know. Fixing this problem would help me and other USB users. Thanks, Michal PS. Right now I'm running 2.4.21-ac3 on PIII/800 Speedstep notebook with i440ZX chipset. I have following usb devices: keyb, mouse, CF reader, CDRW, printer and scanner, 4port mini-usb-hub. -- Michał "Saahbs" Sabała | Moje Słoneczko, podróże, fotografia, FSF/EFF gpg key: http://www.students.uiuc.edu/~sabala/pgp.txt
