Thank you for the reply, Oliver!

I have both SCSI card termination enabled via it's BIOS
and scanner terminator installed on it. Is this right?
I've also tried to connect scanner to it's proprietary
Domex card and the result was the same: lamp moves a bit
and then parks.
By the way, in Windows everything works fine.

Regards,
Cyril.
