Do you see any timeout from the scanner driver in syslog? Maybe the timeout of the scanner driver is just shorter. Usually a timeout occurs because of a bug in the backend (or hardware). But usually it's the other way round: the scanner driver tries longer to get some data than libusb. > so, it would seem to be lower level than the backend. anyone know how can i > get > more debugging info from the kernel scanner driver and libusb, so that i can > see > exactly what packets are going out to the device, and what sort of time > signature they have? Not sure about libusb but to enable debugging in the scanner driver, edit linux/drivers/usb/scanner.h. There are two options: One for general debugging and one that enables pronting very USB packet.
