Hi!
I've been using sane (1.0.14) for some time on a Red Hat 9 machine which
acts as a scan server for a Mustek Bearpaw 1200.
But now it doesn't work, if I try to scan from a client workstation, the
scanner stops about 1/4 of the way and the client (xsane) hangs. If I
"kill -9" saned, the scanner returns to the start position and the
client exits.
If I try to scan using "scanimage > xpto" on the server, it goes to the
exact same spot (1/4 of the way) and returns to the start position, like
if it did the complete job.
I've tried to upgrade sane-backends to 1.0.15 and changed the usb access
method from "kernel" to "libusb" to no avail.
I've also tried to run saned with "-d128" and set the usb debugging to
128 also, but I see no errors, it just hangs.
I was just about to declare the scanner as dead when I went and
connected it to my Fedora 3 (sane-backends 1.0.15) box and it works fine.
There was a recent fedora-legacy update for the kernel, but I rolled it
back to the previous (known to work) version to no avail...
I'm stuck, any ideas?
