I'm running a 1542 in a PCI system with no problems. I don't have any
hard drives on it, only my CDROM and a Zip drive.
I just ran a couple of scans while copying a cdrom full of stuff to
/dev/null and it went off without a hitch.
The scanner is a Microtek X6el (aic7xxx; microtek2:/dev/sgc). Sane is
working well with this setup, BTW. The only problems I've run into
are when I cancel a scan or preview. The cancel takes effect, but
xscanimage becomes unresponsive and I have to kill it before I can
scan again. Same thing if I scan at a depth not supported by my X
server (12 bit gray, e.g.).
All told though, I'm very happy with it. Now if I could just figure
out how to get the aic7xxx module to load automatically...
