Finally got it working! The actual problem was the SCSI card was poorly
seated in the ISA slot. I pulled it out and put it back in, and now it
works. A little embarrassing :). And, curiously, it works without
termination. This frightens me a bit, but as long as it works...
Now SANE recognises my scanner, and I've just scanned my first picture.
Modified rapture!
I plan to put together a how-to or something similar about this, since
I've never seen all the info I needed in the one place anywhere. Is there
somewhere to put docs like this? I notice the snapscan backend page is
mainly devoted to the release status of the software - any plans to host
docs there as well?
