<i>&gt; &gt;You can think all you want. But the answer is a clear indication of the</i><br>
<i>&gt; &gt;opposite. The card seems to be failure if used with SANE.</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; Sorry, but that's not true. The card works well - for having no interrupt</i><br>
<i>&gt; line. I'm </i><br>
<i>&gt; using it with a Mustek 1200SP revision 1.05. My PC (P-133, 64 MB,</i><br>
<i>&gt; 2940UW-SCSI too, </i><br>
<i>&gt; 2.0.29-2.0.36 Kernels) does also some samba serving and I must admit that</i><br>
<i>&gt; the whole </i><br>
<i>&gt; system slows down very much when scanning (compared to a total system</i><br>
<i>&gt; freeze on M$ </i><br>
<i>&gt; this is really a step ahead). Nevertheless it's at least good for two or</i><br>
<i>&gt; three scans </i><br>
<i>&gt; a day (b/w for faxing). And since SANE 1.0 is out it also works with color</i><br>
<i>&gt; (great work btw).</i><br>
<i>&gt; It's surely a better solution to exchange the scanner card but if you've</i><br>
<i>&gt; got enough </i><br>
<i>&gt; time to waste you can use it. It would have been nice to enable the</i><br>
<i>&gt; interrupt but the</i><br>
<i>&gt; adapter is then unusable for M$. And to be honest, who of us is lucky</i><br>
<i>&gt; enough to be </i><br>
<i>&gt; able to ignore M$?</i><br>
<p>
Well. Your systems slows significantly down while you are scanning. But<br>
what if you don't have a Pentium system? The original poster does not have<br>
a Pentium but a 486. Then the things becomes really annoying.<br>
<p>
But in general a card without interrupts is too much pain for actions like<br>
this. Getting a real SCSI card can save you lot's of valuable time.<br>
