Lots of people upgrading to the 2.6.3 kernel are switching to libusb as the scanner module no longer exists, and we've seen a lot of snapscan/libusb related problems on IRC lately. Also, I've seen the snapscan backend segfault in usb_write() with an Epson Perfection 1670. (2.4 kernel, for this one) I tend to think the problem is limited to the snapscan backend, as I've seen quite a number of people on IRC using other backends with libusb and either a 2.4 or 2.6 kernel without problem. Might a general libusb problem too, that wouldn't be the first time it happens :) I'll see if I can track down the segfault with the 1670, but it's not my scanner, not my machine, and I have no physical access (and no access at all yet). In other words, I'll happily help if I can :) JB. -- Julien BLACHE <http://www.jblache.org> <[email protected]> GPG KeyID 0xF5D65169
