Hi, I am using Astra 1220 (scsi) with Debian/GNU Linux 4.0 (etch), kernel 2.6.22.1, and sane 1.0.18. After a couple of scans using xsane the scanner stops scanning often in the middle of a scan. xsane stops responding and eventually goes into uninteruptable sleep (state D). Often but not always the entire xserver freezes and I have to do a hard boot. The kernel spits out i/o error messages. Any subsequent scsi command also goes to sleep immediately. Even if the system is not hung, the xsane process can not be killed and starting a new one hangs it too.
My scsi card is Domex 3191D. It uses passive termination and the scanner has two scsi ports, one of which is terminated,(the other has the cable). Would be grateful for you tips on how to go about fixing this. Or is this a bug ? I would gladly provide any further information required. regards b thomas
