Hmmm, could be the fact that that scanner doesn't ship with a terminator. I also noticed a sad fact. The ACARD scsi card that ships with the scanner is not a standard ACARD. I myself experimented with the NT drivers from ACARD, and while they detected the card, they couldn't "see" the scanner, and then promptly hung the NT box.
I assume this is the same prob under linux. those drivers weren't designed for that particular card. I could be wrong though. If you have a 25pin active terminator laying about somewhere I'd hook it up to the scanner to test it.

Hello,
Recently, I've bought new Acer scaner 620S with ACARD SCSI controller.
It works good enough with Win95, but under linux with atp870u.o with
turned on scanner insmod atp870u gives:

With turned off scanner insmod OK, but I can't add scanner with
echo "..">/proc/scsi/scsi.
Maybe some ideas.
I don't want to buy new SCSI controller, as ACARD already supported by
kernel.
Ideas, suggestions?

Nikolay.
