Well at least someone else has been having fun with this scanner - I thought I
was the only one! :-( All of the snipped above is pretty meaningless to me,
but I do know that the patched kernel on both a Mandrake and a Debian box was
unable to assign a driver to the scanner. Eventually gave up on the project,
leaving a win98 only box for the scanner. If there is anything I can do to
help please let me know, bearing in mind I am not a programmer!
