I recently purchased a UMAX Astra 1200S SCSI scanner, to add to my FreeBSD 2.2.6-RELEASE system (which uses an Adaptec AHA-2940AU PCI narrow UltraSCSI controller). I'm using the SANE port (graphics/sane) to scan stuff. First, I'd like to say that, despite all the weirdo messages shown below, the scanner DOES WORK. There's no problem with the scanner: all my scans come out perfect. However, if at all possible, I would like to find out what the heck is going on here, because the messages are annoying and make dmesg worthless :) Anyway, upon boot-up, the scanner probes really strangely: ----- ahc0:A:5: refuses synchronous negotiation. Using asynchronous transfers (ahc0:5:0): "UMAX Astra 1200S V2.9" type 6 fixed SCSI 2 uk0(ahc0:5:0): Unknown (ahc0:5:1): "UMAX Astra 1200S V2.9" type 6 fixed SCSI 2 uk1(ahc0:5:1): Unknown (ahc0:5:2): "UMAX Astra 1200S V2.9" type 6 fixed SCSI 2 uk2(ahc0:5:2): Unknown (ahc0:5:3): "UMAX Astra 1200S V2.9" type 6 fixed SCSI 2 uk3(ahc0:5:3): Unknown (ahc0:5:4): "UMAX Astra 1200S V2.9" type 6 fixed SCSI 2 uk4(ahc0:5:4): Unknown (ahc0:5:5): "UMAX Astra 1200S V2.9" type 6 fixed SCSI 2 uk5(ahc0:5:5): Unknown (ahc0:5:6): "UMAX Astra 1200S V2.9" type 6 fixed SCSI 2 uk6(ahc0:5:6): Unknown (ahc0:5:7): "UMAX Astra 1200S V2.9" type 6 fixed SCSI 2 uk7(ahc0:5:7): Unknown ----- Note the "refuses synchronous negotiation" and the fact that all LUN's are probed (afaik, this scanner does not use any LUN's). Also, when using the scanner (I am using SANE 0.73 from ports) I get the following in dmesg: ----- uk0(ahc0:5:0): unknown error category from host adapter code uk0(ahc0:5:0): Target Busy ...repeated ad infinatum... ----- What gives here?n Is there any way of fixing it? (for example, upgrading to RELENG22?) Assistance is greatly appreciated.
