[sane-devel] Epson Perfection 2400 - conks out on desktop machine but works on laptop

[Phil Reynolds]

My scanner has been in storage while I had no room for it, but I
reinstalled it today after removing a redundant printer.

However, despite both my laptop and my desktop having similar setups,
the scanner fails - usually coming to a halt - part way through a scan
on my desktop machine. It does not do so on my laptop, but I cannot see
any reason why it would fail on the desktop - there are no obvious error
messages.

The machines are both running Debian etch, sane 1.0.18. I use the epson
backend, and have also tried epkowa on the laptop.

How can I work out what is wrong with the setup on the desktop? It is
mainly on that machine I want the scanner to work.
