scanner problem
hi,
when trying to scan with xsane and "agfa snapscan 1236s", i get the following message:
Attached scsi generic sg2 at scsi0, channel 0, id 5, lun 0, type 6 sym53c895-0-<5,*>: target did not report SYNC. sym53c895-0-<5,0>: extraneous data discarded. sym53c895-0-<5,0>: COMMAND FAILED (89 0) @cff3d000.
what can i do about this?
thanks, Felix

This message is just a warning. If your scanner does not support synchronous data transfers, then it is ok. You may want to check the doc of the device on this point.

This is the way the driver signals data overrun. Btw, I never used xsane. If this tool has some trace mode that tells what SCSI commands are sent to the device, this would help to get such traces.

At least, try to catch the SCSI commands that are sent to the device, and report them.
