FWIW, the last "History" line in microtec.c:

OK, that looks fine. So, I invoked scanimage -dev=microtek2:/dev/sga ...
Cool! I've never had a kernel panic before. Lots of stuff going by on
the console, including "Aiiee! Killing the interrupt handler". A small
bit more scan head activity this time, maybe a whole second. So now I
have two questions.
1) Is there some place where the kernel tries to save the panic output?
Or -- short of setting up a serial console and logging it on another
box, how can I capture it? (Nothing in /var/log/messages.)
2) If there isn't any easy way to capture it, is there a subset of the
last 24 lines which I don't need to write down?
I will try to find a way to move either the SoundBlaster or the USB to
another IRQ.
Thanks,
jed
