Hi, I'm trying to get my UMAX Astra 2200 USB scannner to work with my Mandrake Linux 10.1 (kernel 2.6.8.1) box, and am failing miserably. The scanner works fine (both USB and SCSI) under 'doze.
I think I've got SANE installed correctly, but I'm not even getting a /dev/usbscanner entry. When replugging the scanner, dmesg shows: ohci_hcd 0000:00:0f.2: wakeup usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using address 2 usb 1-1: control timeout on ep0in usb 1-1: device descriptor read/all, error -110 usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using address 3 usb 1-1: control timeout on ep0in usb 1-1: device descriptor read/all, error -110 Following power cycles result in the same message , but with steadily incrementing USB addresses. sane-troubleshoot tries hard, but in the end gives up. sane-find-scanner simply reports no scanner found. >From perusing this lists archives, there is some suggestion that this may be a kernel problem. If so, can anyone direct me to a better source to resolve this? If not, can anyone please help me resolve the problem?
