Please try the following:

edit sane-0.69/backends/umax-scsi.c

serach for umax_do_inquiry

some lines down, there is a line:
size = get_inquiry_additional_length(us->buffer) + 4;

change "4" to "5",
then do:
touch umax.c
make
and as root
make install

please tell me, if that works again!

Thanks
Oliver
