Coolscan not detected

Hello,

I completely new to this list and sane. I hope that this isn't a FAQ.
I'm using Debian/GNU Linux (hamm = frozen) with sane-0.72.
Hardware: K6, Buslogic BT-930 SCSI contoller (no other SCSI devices
than the Nikon Coolscan (LS-20)) so I can't check whether the contoller
works under Linux).

I'm able to access the LS-20 under Win 95, but this is not what I wanted
to do ;-). I brought this Scanner because it is the only slidescanner
which is supported by sane.

I tried

~> scanimage -L
device `pnm:0' is a Noname PNM file reader virtual device
device `pnm:1' is a Noname PNM file reader virtual device

... and as you see the Coolscan isn't listed.

My /etc/sane.d/dll.conf (this is the Debian location of the configuration
file looks like

# enable the next line if you want to allow access through the network:
#net
# apple
# canon
coolscan
# dmc
# epson
# hp
# microtek
# mustek
# pint
pnm
# ... more comments

and coolscan.conf is

/dev/scanner

where /dev/scanner is a symbolic link to sg5 (5 is the SCSI address of
scanner).

I use compiled the SCSI controller as module. So when I do

>modprobe BusLogic
scsi2 : BusLogic BT-930
scsi : 2 hosts.
Vendor: Nikon Model: COOLSCAN II Rev: 1.02
Type: Scanner ANSI SCSI revision: 02

The scanner seems to be detected well.

I havn't any idea why it isn't detected in the device list of scanimage.

What is my fault?

Kind regards

Andreas.
