Subject: Plustek 9636T scans color/grey incorrectly

Hi.

I have Linux kernel 2.4.0 and the latest official Sane and Plustek
driver (pt_drv) downloads as of 1/20/2001.

I installed everything OK as far as I can tell, and I can scan images.
However, only pure black and white images come out OK. Color and
greyscale are blurred, or more specifically, the different color/grey
"planes" are offset from one another. The offset is not consisten from
scan line to scan line, so it's as if it were a data loss problem (?).

Anyway, I'm running a Pentium II / 233MHz and 128MB RAM. I have nothing
else running while scanning.

Just as a note: I had the same problem under the 2.2.17 kernel. And the
scanner runs fine under Windows 95.

Thanks for any helpful input.
