[sane-devel] Linux, BearPaw 1200, I/O errors

[Enleth]

Hello,

I've got Mustek BearPaw 1200, it works flawlessly under Win98, but 
doesn't work under Linux, with SANE. It should, as its support is marked 
"complete" in the supported devices list.

System information (enough of it, I hope) and SANE output is there: 
http://enleth.com/smieci/sane.txt (Quite long, due to the debug log and 
dmesg, so I didn't post it directly there)

The scanner turns the lamp on, moves a few milimeters and stops, with 
SANE's I/O error.
All other USB devices are working fine. This scanner itself too, but on 
Win98.

Quick search trough the list didn't help me, though apparently someone 
had the same problem not a long time ago: 
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/sane-devel/2004-December/012770.html
The usbfs errors in dmesg are similar [there are so many of them in my 
dmesg because I tried scanimage multiple times].

I really don't know if it's some problem with SANE, my system and the 
way it handles USB or even something else, but I'm pretty sure the 
scanner is OK and my system can handle USB (cameras, MP3 players, 
PenDrives, SmartMedia card readers, mice and tablets are working well 
with it).
If that's, in spite of all, SANE's fault, I'm willing to help with 
resolving it, as I have some programming experience (although not in 
such low-level things) and lots of free time. And, after all, I want my 
scanner to work properly :)
