> Hi,

> I've been trying to get the aha152x driver working with an adaptec SCSI
card
> (aic-6360 based ISA card) and mustek MFS-12000-SP scanner with partial
> success.
>
> I have had the scanner working with a DTC card and the NCR driver, but as
it
> has no interrupts, and took the systems entire attention for 30 seconds to
> scan,  I needed to change the card.
>
> With the aha152x diver, the scanner is found & initialized and the scan
> commences - but about the time the first data is returned from the scanner
I
> get a NULL pointer exception.
>
> It is happening in aha152x.c about line 1523 :  (the line number is
> approximate, I have edited the file a bit)
> SCpnt->SCp.ptr = SG_ADDRESS(SCpnt->SCp.buffer);
>
> It is on the first call to internal_queue where SCpnt->use_sg is non-zero.
> The exception occurs because SCpnt->SCp.buffer->page is NULL
>
> This is 100% repeatable, and I added some code to return FAILED when the
> problem occurs - so I can run tests easily enough.
