    Hi Peter,

    Thanks for replying to my email. I really cannot find what I'm doing
    wrong. I've added an extract from the /var/log/messages file. These
    messages appear directly after the start of xscanimage (with or without
    any options specified, it does not matter), just before it segfaults.
    Mar 31 21:31:49 Drizzt kernel: sym53c876-0-<3,*>: target did not report
    SYNC.
    Mar 31 21:31:52 Drizzt kernel: sym53c876-0-<6,*>: asynchronous.

    I've also added the /proc/scsi/scsi file, so you can see what's where :

    Attached devices:
    Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 03 Lun: 00
      Vendor: HP Model: C5110A Rev: 3701
      Type: Processor ANSI SCSI revision: 02
    Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 04 Lun: 00
      Vendor: IOMEGA Model: ZIP 100 Rev: J.03
      Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
    Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 06 Lun: 00
      Vendor: HP Model: C1533A Rev: 9608
      Type: Sequential-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
    Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 04 Lun: 00
      Vendor: PLEXTOR Model: CD-ROM PX-40TS Rev: 1.10
      Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02
    Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 05 Lun: 00
      Vendor: PHILIPS Model: CDD3600 CD-R/RW Rev: 2.00
      Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02
    Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 06 Lun: 00
      Vendor: IBM Model: DDRS-39130D Rev: DC1G
      Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02

    You can find the output generated by hpinq in the attached file
    (hpinq.out). It seems to work normally, that's the odd thing.
    The output from the find-scanner tool also suggests that the scanner can
    be found by sane....

    find-scanner: found processor "HP C5110A 3701" at device /dev/scanner
    find-scanner: found processor "HP C5110A 3701" at device /dev/sg0
    find-scanner: found processor "HP C5110A 3701" at device /dev/sga

    Another odd thing I found (I don't know if it's related), is when I run
    the scsi_info tool on /dev/sga. The result is the following :

    SCSI_ID="0,3,0"
    MODEL="Direct-A "
    FW_REV="SCSI"

    That should say something like what can be found in the /proc/scsi/scsi
    file as far as I know, which would make me expect that model would be
    C5110A instead of Direct-A .....

    Thanks so far.
