Hmmm... Interesting... I forgot to post my answers...<br>
- Do you have any other SCSI controller in the system?<br>
Yes. BT-958 and on-board Adaptec 7895 (Dual Channel SCSI UW)<br>
- Are you using IDE?<br>
Nope.<br>
- Is the BusLogic adaptor the only device on it's IRQ?<br>
No... I try but the stinking Tyan board I have does not assign IRQs<br>
correctly. That's one major reason I'm replacing it. PCI is supposed to<br>
allow IRQ sharing but the driver needs to support it... many Linux<br>
drivers do not. From what I've read on linux-kernel it is simply best<br>
not to share IRQs.<br>
- Is your system SMP?<br>
Yes... Dual Celerons (PPGA with converter board)<br>
- What motherboard are you using?<br>
Tyan Thunder 100 (1696DLUA)... Dual PII LX Motherboard.<br>
<p>
My BusLogic controller doesn't like ripping audio off my Toshiba 32x<br>
SCSI CD drive on that controller. Odd enough it does fine with my Yamaha<br>
CDRW-2260 6x SCSI on the same channel.<br>
<p>
Things to note as similarities (and differences with the guy who<br>
submitted a successful use of a BusLogic controller):<br>
- Additional SCSI controller<br>
- Tyan board<br>
- SMP<br>
<p>
I'll be switching to an ABIT BP6 dual motherboard soon and an AMI<br>
MegaRaid 428 controller. The BusLogic will still run the scanner but<br>
that will elimate one of the suspect components. If that doesn't fix it<br>
I'll switch to Uni processor. If that still doesn't fix it I'll sell my<br>
BusLogic card on ebay and get something else... what is a popular and<br>
solid SCSI controller for SANE scanning?<br>

<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; &gt; Out of curiousity...</i><br>
<i>&gt; &gt; - Do you have any other SCSI controller in the system?</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; Yes, BT-950</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; &gt; - Are you using IDE?</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; Yes, but that will change in a few days. Currently I have a IDE CD-ROM but</i><br>
<i>&gt; the SCSI CD-ROM just showed up, another reason to fix my BT-930.</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; &gt; - Is the BusLogic adaptor the only device on it's IRQ?</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; I believe so, and I'll be freeing another IRQ when I disable IDE. Don't PCI</i><br>
<i>&gt; cards support IRQ sharing, I remember reading that the BusLogic cards do.</i><br>
<i>&gt; Also I've seen somethign about disableing the ISA port address, could that</i><br>
<i>&gt; apply to this problem?</i><br>
<i>&gt; &gt; - Is your system SMP?</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; Yes, Tyan MB, Dual Pentium 200Mhz MMX</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; &gt; - What motherboard are you using?</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; Tyan Tomcat</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; &gt; I ask as I had perfectly stable scanning with a UP SuperMicro P6SBA</i><br>
<i>&gt; &gt; motherboard with IDE drives and the BusLogic card being the only SCSI</i><br>
<i>&gt; &gt; card and on it's own IRQ.</i><br>
<i>&gt; &gt;</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; I have an IBM PC750 running 2.2.5-15 (stock RH6) with a BT-930 hooked to the HP</i><br>
<i>&gt; 4c and a 4mm DAT, and it works great, use SANE over the network as I can't get</i><br>
<i>&gt; the BT-930 to work in the server.</i><br>
