[sane-devel] AGFA Snapscan 1236s possible conflict

[Richard Davies]

I have just moved my scanner over to a new box and now scanimage -L reports 
no Sane devices.

System is a Dell poweredge 300 running an 800 mhz Intel coppermine and 
Mandrake 8.1

Scanner is AGFA Snapscan 1236s
SCSI card is Adaptec AVA1505
The card and scanner are known to work just fine in an old DELL MMX 200
under Mandrake 8.0

Only other piece of hardware that the scanner hasn't worked with before seems 
to be a Lite On ATAPI CD burner. Guessing it may be a conflict I have 
searched the web but not found anything that I understand on this. The 
following is what I have done so far. Now I am stuck for ideas can someone 
point me in the direction of other things I need to check.

The following is the response I get from the system:-
Just booting the system only finds the CD
Modprobe throws errors that I don't understand but does seem to load the 
module even though it gives an error message.
Checking SCSI now shows the scanner installed
sane-find-scanner correctly identifies the scanner
scanimage says no sane devices.
Sane backend points to /dev/sg1
changed permissions on /dev/sg1 to 777 just in case but makes no difference.

sane-find-scanner

sane-find-scanner: found scanner "AGFA SNAPSCAN 1236 1.50" at device /dev/sg1

scanimage

scanimage: no SANE devices found

The backend does indeed point to /dev/sg1

Thanks.
