[sane-devel] [dev] net backend and timing problems? (pretty weird)

Hi!

Hum... if you have the time, could you send me the debug output from my
new net.c when crashing due the option changes, and the debug output
from my new sanei_wire with the old net backend (while probably crashing
after a preview)

regards

xsane and
