Hello again,
<BR>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Bradley was right. I fired up my old 2.2.13 kernel I had lying around
<BR>
on my dos partition using loadlin and viola' xsane actually came right up
<BR>
when I clicked on GIMP .18! WOW. I tried to do 1.0.4 and did have the link
<BR>
on the machine but it didn't come up. The machine at least did not lock
<BR>
up so I was able to go back to .18.
<BR>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I actually was right about the kernel code being the issue as I guess
<BR>
the later kernels aren't as stable on my particular motherboard. Well I
<BR>
can start to fine tune to settings and get off to scanning. The H-P
<BR>
6300 under scsi is really pretty good. I just have to get it right so
<BR>
it doesn't take 20mb to store one image. (Yeah I know I can fix-it
<BR>
under GIMP or XV)
<BR>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Best regards,
<BR>

<EM>&gt; Kurt,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; I don't think it's going to make any difference given all the attempts
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; you have made, but the last STABLE kernel is currently
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; 2.2.14. Although, 2.3.99-pre3 has worked without failure for me with
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; the same scanner and a dual processor setup, but just figured if you
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; were really interested in trying the last stable kernel you might want
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; to know you had an error in your info. =)
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Bradley =)

<EM>&gt; &gt; Hi,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; I have tried inside out and backwards to get sane-1.0.2 to work on
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; an old dual Pentium Pro PR440FX motherboard to no avail. I believe it
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; is a kernel problem NOT a sane problem. I tried with kernel 2.3.19
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; (the last stable kernel) and find-scanner could not find the scanner.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; I checked with the permissions and they were set fine. I tried with
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; SMP and single processor kernels. Building was not a problem.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; The executables were where they were supposed to be.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; I then used the 2.3.99-pre1 and pre3 kernels and made progress with
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; find-scanner being able to find the H-P 6300C scanner on the AIC7880
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; controller. Using scanimage -L the machine gives me what looks like a
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; stack trace for some sort of failure. This occurs with either an SMP or
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; uniprocessor kernel. I'm going to wait and see what happens when the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; new
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; 2.4 distribution comes out. I'm currently using Slack 7.0.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; In the meantime I have a FIC-2013 with a K6-3 450Mhz and 2mb L2 cache
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; and
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; an AHA-2940UW scsi controller I can try to use to get sane and xsane
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; working
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; with this scanner.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; Incidentally, Winblows 98 (on a single cpu) did work with the scanner
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; with
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; the bundled software they provided. My main complaint is I hated the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; image manipulation software. It was lousy! I was scanning under
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; WinBlows
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; and then importing to Linux so I could use XV and GIMP.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; Best regards,
</EM><BR>
