Hi

First, I'll hope you'll forgive me my "Frenchglish"... Try to answer me with
"simple" words... like a kid !!!

Description of the SCSI material :
 - Adaptec 2940 bios 1.21
 - HD 3,2 Go (wich Linux S.u.S.E. 5.2 and 5.3 installed)
 - CD-ROM reader SCSI internal
 - Scanner Umax Astra 1220 S external :-)
 - CD-ROM writer external at the end of the bus

Description of the problem :
When I try to use my scanner with SANE-0.73, the SCSI bus is "stopped" (I'
don't find the right word - sorry) and the system is halted. The only thing I
can do is reboot Linux.

However, I've note some interesting things :
 - I try a kernel with an old driver (4.1.1) and everything is OK even scan
 - With a 5.0.13, the system hang-up when I scan
 - With a 5.0.19, I can't boot (a problem of delay to reset the SCSI bus)


Thanks for your support
