Well that actually not that true. Maybe there was one official SANE 
release where it was broken - but I really did not had any problem over 
the last 1 and 1/2 years with it ...

If you have fill a bug report in the bug tracker and assign it to me - 
or even better CC me in some mail. I have not the time to monitor 
sane-devel that closely so I might missed some mails ...

Can you try the current code in my SVN repository here:

   http://svn.exactcode.de/sane-avision/trunk/

And tell me if you still have problems?

PS: It just comes to my mind, that maybe the problem of all the people 
without working Avision based scanner is that they have this broken 
hpusbscsi kernel module loaded ...
