was there any sort of pattern to the timeouts? was the kernel scanner module loaded?
on my system, if the device is freshly plugged in, and the scanner.o module has not been loaded (cause i removed it from the modules dir), i can run scanimage -d fujitsu --help over and over again, with no timeouts. this is true when the backend is patched or not, and seems to be because the backend sends only two bulk writes to the device when you do --help (inquiry and evpd). if you try that (just the fresh plugin, no scanner.o and the scanimage --help repeatedly) what does that do? allan On Mon, 17 Nov 2003, Peter Hartshorn wrote: > I've just tested the patch against the latest CVS and I still get the > timeouts > :( > > -- "so don't tell us it can't be done, putting down what you don't know. money isn't our god, integrity will free our souls" - Max Cavalera
