    I have tried a different SCSI Card. The original one I've been using is
    an AHA2940AU. I just tried with a AHA2940U2W.

    As a result, I have had to use differnt Cable. All the other SCSI
    devices work great (4mm DAT, Iomega ZIP).

    I have tried with just the scanner attached using an external 25 pin
    Terminator. I have all the devices on the bus. The tape drive is the
    last device (external terminator).

    Is there any compatibility issues with SANE and RedHat 7.0?

    I have tried with the version that is shipped with RedHet and most up
    throught 1.0.4.

    This used to work on the same machine when it was RedHat 6.2

    Please Advise.
