PCMCIA SCSI and SANE (Umax)

Hi, I just unpacked and built SANE 1.00 to use with my laptop running Linux
(RedHat 5.2). I have a PCMCIA SCSI card which is working just fine.

However:

when I connect the UMAX Astra 1200S, scanimage --lsit-devices does not
recognise it. Here's my SCSI info:

>ventus cat /proc/scsi/scsi
Attached devices:
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 05 Lun: 00
Vendor: UMAX Model: Astra 1200S Rev: V2.9
Type: Scanner ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 06 Lun: 00
Vendor: IOMEGA Model: ZIP 100 Rev: J.02
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02

But scanimage doesn't find anything:

>ventus scanimage --list-devices
device `pnm:0' is a Noname PNM file reader virtual device
device `pnm:1' is a Noname PNM file reader virtual device

(Same result running as root, so it's not a permissions issue.) I'm using
the default sane-umax.conf:

>ventus cat /usr/local/etc/sane.d/umax.conf
scsi UMAX * Scanner
scsi LinoHell Office
/dev/scanner

What am I doing wrong? (Sad to report, I can use the scanner under Win95 on
this laptop.)
