Hi

I've got an UMAX Astra 600S connected to an Dawicontrol DC-2974 PCI
adapter on FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE. There are also 3 SCSI hard drives
connected internally to the same adapter.

I've installed sane-1.0.1 from the ports and patched the latest UMAX
driver (sane-umax-1.0.1-build-13).

The scanner works only as long as I don't access any hard drive while
scanning. As soon as there's any other activity while the scan is in
progres the whole SCSI bus would freeze, the scaner will stop without
even parking the lamp and I have to reboot the system and turn the
scanner off and back on to recover.

Is this normal? Any chance to get the scanner and the hard drives
working together on the same SCSI adapter? Termination should be ok.

Thank you,
Andi
