I flushed my Avision TODO list a bit and so tested the Avision backend
with a more recent kernel: 2.6.7 works fine on PowerPC OHCI. I still
plan to find a box to test a UHCI.

You mean "talking" directly using libusb while the scanner module is
loaded or so? Although this gives a permission denied or so for me,
maybe with ohci this behaves differently? People with problems could
take a look if either scanner or hpsubscsi was / is loaded ... and
unload it just in case ...
