<p>
Possibly. DTC SCSI cards (or similar ones with a different name) seem to<br>
be shipped with various scanners. <br>
<p>
They are not well supported in Linux but you can apparently get them to<br>
work. It is necessary to obtain a kernel patch from<br>
<p>
<a href="ftp://ftp.mostang.com/pub/sane/mustek-scsi-patch-0.5.gz">ftp://ftp.mostang.com/pub/sane/mustek-scsi-patch-0.5.gz</a><br>
<p>
You have to apply this to the kernel source and recompile the kernel[1]. I<br>
have not done this yet as it would be my first kernel build and I recon I<br>
would need a whole distraction-free afternoon alone with my computer --<br>
this doesn't happen often.<br>
<br>
<i>&gt; Was it shipped whith an Avision 630cs A4-Scanner?</i><br>
No. Mine came with an Artec AT12<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; Does this scanner work under linux?</i><br>
<p>
I don't know. I'll forward this to the SANE mailing list and see if any of<br>
the SANE gurus know. It doesn't seem to be listed on the SANE web page,<br>
though.<br>

[1] This patch is relative to the kernel 2.0.31 . Does anyone know if it<br>
ever got into the official Linux kernel?<br>
