Sorry for the questions of a newbie, but:

I seem not to be able to access my scanner under Linux

my setup:
i486, 32 mb ram, ...., ncr810 controller, umax Astra 600, sane 0.66
linux 1.0.25

I compiled my kernel with Generic SCSI support, at start the message pops
up

detected SCSI generic sge at scsi0, channel 0, id 6, lun 0

I created a device node for the scanner

mknod -m 660 /dev/sge c 21 6

my /dev lokks like

....
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Oct 29 21:12 /dev/scanner ->
/dev/sge
crw-rw---- 1 root root 21, 6 Oct 29 21:12 /dev/sge
....

My umax.conf looks like

/dev/scanner
# this is a comment
/dev/sge

All seems ok, but if I start scanimage, my scanner isn't available

# (/dev/scanner)?
sanei_scsi_open: open() failed: No such device or address
# (/dev/sge)?
sanei_scsi_open: open() failed: No such device or address
# (/dev/sge)?
sanei_scsi_open: open() failed: No such device or address

(the # lines are some own debug code, because somehow the sanei code don't
bring debug code). Yes I set SANE_DEBUG_UMAX and SANE_SANEI_SCSI (or the
equivalent thing from "man sane-config" to 128)

Looks like I missed something important but what?

With hope for help

Dirk
