<i> &gt;Some months ago I got hold of an old scanner called Microtek Scanmaker</i><br>
<i> &gt;35t, which I want to get up and running in Linux as well as Windows 98.</i><br>
<i> &gt;I'm aware of the fact that only the scanmaker 35t+ is officially</i><br>
<i> &gt;supported by SANE, but I tried it anyway.</i><br>
<p>
This scanner should work with the microtek backend, give or take few bug<br>
fixes, I suppose. It's not listed as "working" because you are the<br>
first person to ever mention it to me, working or non-working.<br>
<p>
<p>
Try it again, but enable debugging output (instructions available on both<br>
man-page and backend website), and send a log to &lt;<a href="mailto:mtek-bugs@mir.com">mtek-bugs@mir.com</a>&gt;.<br>
<p>
Could you also tell me what the optical resolution of the scanner is?<br>
The backend guesses 1950dpi; this is not information returned by the <br>
scanner itself. If this is wrong, it could be the root of the problem.<br>
<p>
<p>
One last thing: it's probably best to disable disconnect/reconnect for<br>
the scanner -- this would be an option to the SCSI driver. It seems to<br>
be enabled, from the log you sent. The aha152x is pretty lame about<br>
timeouts and all; that's why you have to reboot the machine when it hangs.<br>
(You're better off installing it as a module, but even then you have to<br>
wait a long time before it will let you rmmod and re-insmod it.)<br>
