I'm using an Artec AM12S attached to an Adaptec 2903 SCSI card. Said scsi card came with my CD-writer, and I moved the scanner off of it so it wouldn't interfere with the system disks on my Adaptect 2940. The sane-backends port is version 1.0.7_1, on -STABLE. The major problem I'm seeing is that it's just plain flaky. It crashes, locks up the scanner, and other evil things. When it does scan properly, I see a pattern of dark "waves" across the image - much like herringbone interference on a TV set - making it unusable. I'd rather not move this back to the 2940, as it sometimes screws up the system disks, which is very not good. But having it not work at all isn't much better. If someone can provide hints and/or tools to help solve this, I'd appreciate it. Thanks, http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
