[sane-devel] old Agfa DuoScan / Floating point exception

Hello list :-)

I've looked around thru all the man pages and google and tried what I 
understood (which isn't really much...) and I just don't get my old Agfa 
DuoScan running under Linux.

I am using SUSE 10.0 / KDE 3.5.1
on a Asus P4PE Motherboard
with Intel Pentium 4 2.4 GHz
1 GB Memory
Adaptec AVA 2904 SCSI Card

and an old Agfa DUOSCAN 
(more than 10 years old, no further details on backside of Scanner, except 
Serial No. etc., but no other Model Name...)

The SCSI information (from KDE Info center) is:

Attached devices:
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 03 Lun:00
Vendor: AGFA Model: DUOSCAN Rev.: 1.60
Type: Scanner  ANSI SCSI revision: 06

When I type "scanimage" I get the following:

Floating point exception

The only interesting thing I find in this output is the "Floating point 
exception"...

result is the same if I run it as root or as user, no difference.

Now when I start Kooka and try to scan (or preview, no matter if b/w or 
colour) kooka crashes with the following in the KDE crash manager:

(no debugging symbols found)

Can anybody help me?
If you need any more information about my computer or settings, please tell me 
what you need (and if it's not obvious, pleasetell me where I can find the 
necessary information...)

Thanks
