Hi,
<BR>
<P>I should try to run it in a debugger, although I'm not quite sure how to do that. I
<BR>
tried enabling the pnm &quot;backend&quot; to test scanning from a file, and there were no
<BR>
crashes, so this makes me think that the snapscan backend is to blame, although the
<BR>
behavior of the pnm backend with respect to previewing is not the same as a real
<BR>
backend, since you can't change the scan area. I am trying something else now. We have
<BR>
another scanner, a Microtek V6USL, so I will give it a try with that one and see if
<BR>
that doesn't improve things...
<BR>
<P>Unfortunately, I just tried and it seems to be precipitating a general meltdown . An
<BR>
old junky harddrive seems to be failing, so I may have to rebuild the system. Argh!
<BR>
<P>John.

<EM>&gt; Hi,

<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; are there any messages before it crashes ? Maybe you can run the program
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; in a debugger to see in which part the problem occurs.

<EM>&gt; &gt; Hi,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; Thanks for noticing this. It really is a weird problem. The program that crashes
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; is the scan client (either xsane or xscanimage), saned continues running. It
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; happens just as the preview pass has completed. As it previews, you see the image
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; appearing in the preview window, and when it finishes, bam! The program crashes.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; It is possible to manually define the scan area, then you get your image from
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; within the window you set when you scan, but you can't see the preview to know
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; where it falls on the image.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; Any ideas?
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt;
