Gentoo Linux w/2.4.22 kernel. XSane .91 installed.
When I run XSane, it detects the Umax Astra 1200S (Scsi) scanner. When I click 'Acquire Preview' or 'Scan', the scanner starts to go and then the system hangs. Mouse won't move, can't toggle numlock, and can't CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE to kill X. Any thoughts? What's strange is this did work a few months ago. Nothing has really changed as far as I know. I.E. No new devices have been added to the system, and no settings were changed, at least that I know of. As far as I can guess, this is some sort of resource conflict. I'm just not sure how to go about troubleshooting. Advice is welcome. The SCSI card is Adaptec 2930. cat /proc/scsi/scsi shows: Attached devices: Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 05 Lun: 00 Vendor: UMAX Model: Astra 1200S Rev: V3.1 Type: Scanner ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 06 Lun: 00 Vendor: HP Model: CD-Writer+ 9200 Rev: 1.0e Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 04 Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: PIONEER Model: DVD-ROM DVD-104F Rev: 2.02 Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 01 Lun: 00 Vendor: MATSHITA Model: DVD-RAM LF-D311 Rev: A127 Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Thanks. -Dave
