I think these drivers are just for normal USB scanners that happen to use a SCSI-over-USB protocoll. This could be done in userspace also (done in the avision backend some days before). I don't know if such thing exist but wouldn't a general SCSI controller work that has an usb connector instead being a PCI card? Bye, Henning
