And it does work a whole lot better, even densities are had from 
150dpi to 2400 dpi now.

Just one thing about using that preferences menu.  The builtin no 
activity timeout shuts it (xsane and company) down in about 30 
seconds, making it hard to study the menu's and adjust anything 
before xsane goes away.  Can this be reset somehow to say 5 
minutes?
