scanner not recognized (interrupt in idle phase?)

scanner not recognized (interrupt in idle phase?)

[Wolfgang Haeuptli]

Hello,

on startup, I see this message (mesh: interrupt in idle phase?) while the system
checks the scsi bus. This is on a kernel 2.2.9 with sg-driver included, on a
performa 6400 with a UMAX Astra 1200S scanner (which works on the MacOS 
side, b.t.w.).

Any scsi-crack around that could give me a pointer how to solve the problem? 
(Do I need another low-level driver for my scsi-chip ... which would be what??)

Thanks for a hint

Have you tried a stock kernel 2.2.13 from ftp.xy.kernel.org (xy for your
prefered domain ,ch ,de, uk...)
I have no scanner but I noticed the following page which refers to a
'new' sg driver. This driver should be in since 2.2.6. www.torque.net/sg.
Maybe this is a hint...
