Hi,
I had to upgrade my mainboard from a nice old BX Chipset to a
newer VIA 82C686 based one (ECS D6VAA).
Now I've several problems with the scanner drivers (both primax-scan
and px-backend):
- when detecting the port type the system hangs for about 3-4 seconds
(no mouse movement possible, keyboard Num-Lock has no effect)
- preview scans look nice, but the higher the resolution I use for
scanning the image gets "out of sync" - parts are shifted to the
left or right.
Is there anyone having also such problems? Any idea ?
Thanks.
PS.: I'll have such a scan on my private website for some weeks.
