LO folks, newbie to scanners & Linux box here. 
I'm running SuSE Linux 7.1 pro on a Fujitsu Myrica Plus P233X with 64M Ram.
I also have a UMAX Astra 610P, which, according to

>There is now a preliminary SANE backend for these scanners. Note that the
> 610 has not been tested with this backend but is reported to use the same 
>ASIC  as the 1220P and the 2000P so it might work. 

I have two q's.
q1. Is this EVER gonna work?
q2. Does anyone have a) the time, b) the patience to talk a newbie(windows 
convert) through the parport business?

Ron
