Just for the fun of it try:

    export SANE_DEBUG_HP=17
    export SANE_DEBUG_SANEI_SCSI=255
    scanimage -L 2>&1 | tee a;

and see what happens. It would also be interesting to see if
your /proc/scsi/sg/device_strs has anything in it that looks
like an HP scanner.

I'm having a rather similar problem with another BusLogic
card -- problem might not be the just the 958.
