That's a good idea. So we change SANE_SCSICMD_TIMEOUT to a static variable (e.g. sane_scsicmd_timeout) throughout the code that is initialized by 60. If variable SANE_SG_TIMEOUT is set, sane_scsicmd_timeout is changed appropriately, e.g. in sanei_scsi_open. Can you do that? You are a lot more familiar with the SCSI code :-) Bye, Henning
