Ok this is complaining about your ZIP drive right ? If it is not ncessary at the time being you may want to disconnect it until the core of the problem is reached.

Do you use Suse kernel or self compiled with ide-scsi being compiled in the kernel not as module( I had a problem with self compiled kernel where I had the similar problem the scanner and thge scsi was frozen). If that is not the case try running the scanner when ide-scsi is not loaded to the memory. The last thing are you running xsane as root if as a normal user then is the use member of the disk group Hope you may come out with the solution you seek for -- Togan Muftuoglu toganm@turk.net 100% MS FREE Absolutely no component of Microsoft was used in the generation or posting of this e-mail.
