I'm now on my third scanner with Sane. The Mustek and Umax scanners I've had
have bit the dust and I'm on to a new Epson which I bought becuase a web page
indicated that they have helped with development.
I'm using the SCSI interface with an Adaptec card and kernel 2.2.19. I downloaded,
compiled and installed Sane 1.0.5.
Up to 300dpi resolution, things seem to work well. Above this resolution, the
data coming back into Gimp is garbled. I've seen my image with a ghostly copy
off to one side. I've seen individual lines of garbled data intersperced.
At the highest resolutions, there are data transfer errors for which I need
to rmmod and insmod the SCSI drivers.
I'm willing to do any kind of testing to try to get higher resolutions working.
