  Hi all...

  I just joined this list in the hopes of getting a better understanding
  of a problem I've been having with sane, aic7xxx and an HP ScanJet 5p.
  I have searched high and low and could not find an answer, but I'm new
  to linux and scsi so don't be too harsh if it's been discussed or I
  missed something obvious. :-)

  I am running RH7.0 with kernel 2.4.4, the latest aic7xxx drivers
  (6.1.13), an Adaptec 2930 scsi card and sane 1.0.4. The reason I am
  posting to this list is that I later connected an Exabyte 8mm tape
  drive to the system and was able to use it without any problems, hence
  making me think that something is wrond with the sane-backend.

  When I do a 'scanimage -v > /tmp/foo', most of the time it works.
  When I do a 'scanimage -v --mode color > /tmp/foo, I always get the
  following messages in my /var/log/messages:

  Jun 1 10:36:20 boxster kernel: scsi0:0:2:0: Attempting to queue an ABORT message
  Jun 1 10:36:20 boxster kernel: (scsi0:A:2:0): Queuing a recovery SCB

  Jun 1 10:36:21 boxster kernel: scsi0:0:2:0: Command not found
  Jun 1 10:36:21 boxster kernel: aic7xxx_dev_reset returns 8194

  Here is the output from scanimage -T. The first is without the "mode"
  being set.

  $ scanimage -T:
  scanimage: scanning image of size 2550x3507 pixels at 1 bits/pixel
  scanimage: acquiring gray frame, 1 bits/sample

  scanimage: stepped read, 15 bytes... PASS

  scanimage: stepped read, 3 bytes... PASS

  $ scanimage -T --mode color

  scanimage: scanning image of size 2550x3507 pixels at 24 bits/pixel
  scanimage: acquiring RGB frame, 8 bits/sample
  scanimage: reading one scanline, 7650 bytes... FAIL Error: Error during device I/O

  And with the second example comes the messages in /var/log/messages
  that I quoted above.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
