Hi Karl, I find to get scanner into the kernel I must have something in 
/etc/rc.d/rc.local file, and that something can include the vendor and 
product. If you can tell me how to load the scanner module alone some 
other way I'm listening. I could read 
/usr/src/linux/documentation/modules again but I'm tired of all that 
today...:-)
