Hello,

I'm trying to get my microtek slimscan C6 USB scanner working under 
YellowDog Linux 3.0.1 (2.4.22-2g Kernel) running on an eMac.  

Upon boot up without the scanner plugged in, the messages files contains 
this (w.r.t USB):

Next I load the microtek module:

Mar 11 16:53:19 localhost kernel: usb.c: registered new driver microtekX6
Mar 11 16:53:19 localhost kernel: microtek.c: v0.4.4:Microtek Scanmaker X6 
USB scanner driver

Finally I plug in the scanner:

Mar 11 16:53:37 localhost kernel: hub.c: new USB device 10:18.0-2, assigned 
address 2
Mar 11 16:53:37 localhost kernel: usb.c: failed to set device 2 default 
configuration (error=-110)
Mar 11 16:53:37 localhost kernel: hub.c: new USB device 10:18.0-2, assigned 
address 3
Mar 11 16:53:37 localhost kernel: usb.c: failed to set device 3 default 
configuration (error=-110)

sane-find-scanner (as root) can't find any scanners.  One thing that is 
interesting is that Ed Hanrick's VueScan (under Mac OS 10.3.2) does find the 
scanner and works.  I was hoping for some similar results with GIMP and 
XSANE.

According to SANE man pages (sane-microtek2), this scanner should be 
supported.  If anyone has any ideas on this, I would appreciate any info.  I'm 
fairly new to linux.  Thanks.
