  This is also a very good news for me since I passed some time to make my
  Phantom 330CX working under Linux.

  Riku, how did you do to succeed. With my scanner, I went far, but
  finally got an "error during device I/O" (posted on this list 21 july),
  but I got no answer/comment from the list. (I use microtek2). So I am
  stopped and must use W9x to obtain images. (I remember that some
  parameters were mandatory for the definition of the W9X driver which is
  also a scsi emulator on PP, maybe this is to be taken into account with
  microtek2?).
  Regards.

  B.Michaud
