2.5. wait until the scanner finishes its initialization (LED stops blinking) > 3. modprobe aic7xxx I use the Astra 1200S in combination with a NCR 53c810 SCSI controller. When it works, could you please try scanimage --resolution 600 --depth 10 -x 150 -y 297 >/dev/null ? At a width > 144mm my scanner can't transfer the data fast enough and does that typical jerky head movement. As this width corresponds to only 2MB/s, I wonder if it improves if I reduce the cable length (now: Astra - 0,8m - older scanner as SCSI adapter - 2m - controller - 0,5m - CD-ROM drive). Daniel
