<EM>&gt; Hello.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; I'm using an Agfa 1236S with the snapscan backend (src-1.0.tar.gz).
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Scanimage (for example) doesn't work and left the computer in a funny
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; state. Actually, the driver hangs, and since I've only SCSI disks,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; everything slowly blocks as disks are solicited. The kernel log shows
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; that requests to disks (on the same scsi card) timeout.
</EM><BR>
<P><EM>&gt; The problem can be traced back to the piece of code requesting scanner
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; self-test. I just commented out that portion (diff -u included at the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; end of this message) and everything works fine. I believe the problem
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; to be actually in the generic SCSI driver (that shouldn't crash so
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; badly whatever trash may be sent to it), however this is a workaround.
</EM><BR>
<P>That's interesting. I've got reports from Snapscan 1212U owners about USB-bus
<BR>
lockups when using my patched snapscan backend. The problem was traced to
<BR>
the self-test command. After filtering out this command in the USB
<BR>
command sending routines the scanner has worked perfectly.
