  Hi Doug,
  I didn't realize at first that you mentioned two different problems.

  Is it correct that the problem only occurs with xsane but not with xscanimage?

  So let's try to find out a bit about this problem:
  - what was the last version (build=?) of the umax backend you used before sane-1.0.3 that worked correct?
  - The "Failed to start scanner" does not always happen?

  Please edit umax.c, line 3951 and change the -1 to 0 for
  dev->pause_after_reposition

  then reset the scanner (off/on)

  and tell me if that changes anything!

  Bye
  Oliver
