[oops]

Ok, some tests on my system with linux 2.6.1 and some Mustek USB
scanners:

- no problems with libusb
- with the kernel scanner driver, I get an oops when unplugging a
  scanner
- with the kernel scanner driver and "preemptible kernel" I get an
  oops when running scanimage -L

So I guess for now the kernel scanner driver in 2.6 isn't really
usable. It's marked "obsolete" anyway so better use libusb.

Bye,
