On Redhat 9.0 with all Up2date patches installed, I uninstalled sane-backends and installed sane-backends-1.0.12-1asp.i386.rpm. When I ran xsane with ADF enabled, my HP7450C scanner, which is connected via usb, fed about 5 inches of the first document into the ADF, went into Initializing mode, and hung. I reproduced the problem with export SANE_DEBUG_AVISION=7, and sent a problem report to [email protected] on Fri, 20 Jun 2003. I haven't received a response yet, and Rene appears to be on vacation: no activity since June 11.
Yesteroday, I uninstalled sane, xsane-0.89-3, xsane-gimp-0.89-3, sane-frontends-1.0.9-2, and kdegraphics-3.1-5, and installed sane-backends-1.0.12.tar.gz and xsane-0.91.tar.gz. I got the same behavior when I ran xsane with ADF enabled. After hanging for a long time, sometimes a device disable error message is sent to the log, sometimes not. I am wondering if there is a SCSI/USB conflict. The usb/scsi emulation is supposed to be obsolete, but I found the following on my system: /var/log/messages shows kernel: Attached scsi generic sg5 at scsi1, channel 0, id 0, lun 0, type 6, during system startup. The Hardware Browser lists the scanner as sg5. /proc/bus/usb/devices contains: C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=40 MxPwr= 0mA I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=09(hub ) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=hub E: Ad=81(I) Atr=03(Int.)

Where should I look for the way to properly configure my scanner?
