[sane-devel] My Umax works well, now it hangs up?

[Miroslav Suchý]

I have well working Umax Astra 600S connected via INI9100U scsi card.
Week ago, it stop scanning. I think I do not change anything, but 
perhaps was installed new version of SANE automatically by debian.

I use xsane and it stop on initial dialog "listing avail. devices" (not 
sure about exactly phrase, because it is localized), then it hang up and 
only use a lot of CPU and scanner's lamp switch on. The dialog when I 
can choose which scanner I want use do not show.

Some debug info:
$ sane-find-scanner
found SCSI scanner "UMAX Astra 600S V1.2" at /dev/sg1

/dev/sg1 is symlink in devfs to /dev/scsi/host1/bus0/target5/lun0/generic

$  export SANE_DEBUG_UMAX=13
$ scanimage -L
[umax] sane_init
[umax] This is sane-umax version 1.0 build 38
....
[umax] option connection-type = 1
[umax] sanei_config_attach_matching_devices(scsi UMAX * Scanner)
[umax] attach_scanner: /dev/scsi/host1/bus0/target5/lun0/generic, 
connection_type 1
[umax] attach_scanner: opening scsi device 
/dev/scsi/host1/bus0/target5/lun0/generic
[umax] attach_scanner: sanei_scsi_open_extended returned scsi buffer 
size = 16384
[umax] attach_scanner: allocating SCSI buffer[0]
[umax] init
....
[umax] finished reading configure file
[umax] sane_get_devices(local_only = 0)
and here it hang up again

I use this version:
ii  libsane        1.0.9-2        API library for scanners
ii  sane-gimp1.2   1.0.9-2        Scanner graphical frontends -- GIMP 
1.2 flav
ii  sane-utils     1.0.9-2        API library for scanners -- utilities
ii  xsane-common   0.89-2         A gtk based X11 frontend for SANE 
(Scanner A
ii  xsane-gimp1.2  0.89-2         A gtk based X11 frontend for SANE 
(Scanner A

# uname -r
2.4.19

BTW:
In syslog is this (nothing more):
Nov 15 12:16:30 triple kernel: ppdev0: registered pardevice
Nov 15 12:16:30 triple kernel: ppdev0: unregistered pardevice
I THINK that sane try if is par.port scanner attached - dunno.

Thanks for help.
