hi gerhard,

my english is not so good, but i will hope you understand me.
i have an plustek 96000p parralel-port-scanner. my system running under SuSE 
9.0.
i have download the plustek-module-0_42_9.tar.gz from your website.
my sane-version is 1.0.10.
i have made an directory backend under /usr/share/sane an have to unpack the 
archiv in this direktory.
than i have in the direktory plustek_driver "make all" an as root "make 
install":

here the result:

# omega:/usr/share/sane/backend/plustek_driver # make install
# mkdir -p /lib/modules/2.4.21-99-default/misc
# install -c -m "644" pt_drv.o /lib/modules/2.4.21-99-default/misc
# /sbin/depmod -a
# omega:/usr/share/sane/backend/plustek_driver #

than i "make load":

omega:/usr/share/sane/backend/plustek_driver # make load
/sbin/modprobe pt_drv || exit 1
rm -f /dev/pt_drv*
omega:/usr/share/sane/backend/plustek_driver #

the lamp on scanner is switching on (hurra!)

than i say: scanimage -L

the result is:

omega:/usr/share/sane/backend/plustek_driver # scanimage -L

No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).
omega:/usr/share/sane/backend/plustek_driver #

when i say

omega:/usr/share/sane/backend/plustek_driver #scanimage -d plustek:/dev/pt_drv

the scanner is scanning a part of an image!

where is the mistake?

here i have a part from /var/log/messages:

Okt 27 15:52:29 omega su: pam_unix2: session started for user root, service su
