You mean it's producing the noise if you start xsane, or if you start to 
acquire a preview? In the first case you could try to upload the firmware 
manually using agfafirm (from http://snapscan.sourceforge.net) and see if 
that changes anything.

Please also send me a debug log ("export SANE_DEBUG_SNAPSCAN=255", "xsane 
2>debug.log"). 

Regards,

Oliver
