Yes, it works!!!!!!!!!
Great,
Bjoern, you are great!
So this is the solution (almost for color mode),
it is a configuration problem, not a card or a kernel one.
Thanks again, thanks also to dr. Bolsch for his interest.
I think this information and the configuration changes
should be put in the Sane package (in Mustek section).
