(I never could get the scanner to work in older versions of SuSE.) It works fine in various Windows versions, but I don't have a really good OCR for Windows. And I went out of my way to buy a scsi scanner, so it might work on Linux. No such luck.
I will shortly (I hope) have SuSE 10.0.

I may be wrong but surely it would be the version SANE that you are using not the version of SuSE as to whether your scanner would work. Or am I wrong?
I've had two different SCSI scanners working with SANE on my old RH 9.0 box. This was a really long time ago, so I don't remember how I did it, but I do remember that it took about five minutes-- literally. Try typing "sane" at a prompt. hth, ken
