Hello,
<BR>
<P>This is a short addendum. I've noticed that when the scanner green light is on and steady, the scanner carriage light is also on. When I first power on/plug in/replug in the scanner, and all is ready,
<BR>
<P>'scanimage -d epson' returns
<BR>
[epson] error in receive - status = 62
<BR>
[epson] error in receive - status = 5
<BR>
[epson] ident failed
<BR>
scanimage: open of device epson failed: Invalid argument
<BR>
<P>the second time I run this command, before printing anything out, the green light changed red and flashed quickly, and the scanner carriage light goes out (!).
<BR>
<P>The programs seems to never quit, and the printer indefinitely flashing the red light. I can now control-C out of the scanimage program (normally the scanimage program doesn't respond to control-C) and power off/on the scanner.
<BR>

<EM>&gt; Hello,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Please help. My epson scanner is more stubborn than Windows' registry. I'll try to
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; list everything I've tried and done very concisely and explicitly.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Much thanks for any help,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Torsten Howard
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; The Scanner
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; -----------
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Epson Perfection 636U
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; USB interface
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Supported by SANE backend
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; The Computer
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; ------------
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Sony VAIO 505TR laptop
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; 1 USB Port
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; UHCI (not alternate)
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Kernels used: 2.2.13, 2.2.14, 2.3.99pre1
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Distribution: Slackware 7.0
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; The Problem
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; -----------
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; When I plug the scanner in, unplug and then replug it in, power-off then power-on,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; 'scanimage --list-devices' returns
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; [epson] error in receive - status = 62
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; [epson] error in receive - status = 5
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; [epson] ident failed
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; It takes ~2 min. 0.12 sec to run this command every time I run it.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; A couple of times, it just prints first and third, the second and third, or just the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; third lines from above.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; After trying 'scanimage --list-devices' several times, eventually just
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; [epson] ident failed
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; is printed, and after a little while longer, and I'm not 100% on the error conditions
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; here, but it seems like one error is printed, the green ready light on the scanner
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; turns red and flashes quickly.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Hereafter, I must power off/power on the scanner. It seems this red light started
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; flashing once after the second line was printed (but no the third), and all other
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; times it seems the red light started flashing sometime after the scanimage program
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; quits, but I'm not sure. Every time I check the scanner right after the program
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; quits, it's light is green. But often I look back after not having checked the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; scanner for awhile, and the light flashes red. Hmmmph.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; What I Know
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; -----------
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; the scanner works. I can scan with printshop pro under windows 98.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; when the &quot;plug n' play&quot; is enabled in bios, nothing works. When disabled, I get the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; error mentioned above. So it remains disabled. This was done under recommendation
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; from Karl's homepage usb setup.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; /dev/usbscanner0 was created with the command 'mknod /dev/usbscanner c 180 48'
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; I've tried using sane v1.0.2 and save v1.0.2 modified with the epson files (version
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; 20000306) from www.khk.net (Karl Heinz Kremer's page) - don't worry, I deleted all the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; old files before reinstalling the new version to make sure there were no duplicate
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; files anywhere.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; I have modified the file /usr/local/etc/sane.d/epson.conf to one have one line,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; '/dev/usbscanner0'
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; the output of /var/log/debug prints, when I connect the scanner
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; ... kernel: hub.c: port 1 connection change
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; ... kernel: hub.c: portstatus 101, change 1, High Speed
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; ... kernel: hub.c: portstatus 103, change 0, High Speed
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; ... kernel: hub.c: kmalloc IF c696d2c0, numif 1
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; ... kernel: usb.c: usbscanner driver claimed interface c696d2c0
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; so I know the scanner is being recognized and initialized, and it appears the scanner
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; driver is grabbing the interface(?)
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; 'scanimage -d epson' command returns
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; [epson] error in receive - status = 62
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; [epson] error in receive - status = 5
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; [epson] ident failed
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; scanimage: open of device epson failed: Invalid argument
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; 'xscanimage epson' returns a dialog box, something like 'failed to open epson' and
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; 'scanimage /dev/usbscanner0' returns
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; [epson] ident failed
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; scanimage: no SANE devices found
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; I have used the kernel 2.2.13 patched with the usb backport (for 2.2.14) and I have
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; used the 2.2.14 kernel with the usb-backport (for 2.2.14). Both have the exact same
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; errors and outputs. I have compiled both as modules, and directly in the kernel.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Kernels are compiled with usbcore, usbdevfs, usbscanner, and uhci (not &quot;alternate&quot;).
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Also, I was sure to make modules and make modules_install because I can insmod usbcore
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; and insmod usb-uhci and insmod scanner....
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; I can mount /proc/bus/usb but it never ever shows any files (devices, etc).
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; I have tried the 2.3.99pre1 kernel, but it failed to boot. It printed something like,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; 'Uncompressing kernel......... OK, booting&quot; and hung right there. I made very few
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; configuration changed, and even set 'vga=normal' in lilo.conf (and ran lilo) to make
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; sure kernel could use the display, but it still failed to boot.
</EM><BR>
