>Description:
My A3000 hangs when attaching to a HP Scanjet II cx.
This happens right after the string "scan0: HP ScanJet IIcx" is
printed to the console. The SCSI bus busy LED stays lighted.
Yes, the SCSI bus was properly terminated. The same scanner works
fine with NetBSD-1.2_BETA on a i486 machine it is normally connected
to via an Adaptec 2940 interface.
I booted into the debugger and tried to toggle several of the sbic.c
switches (sbic_enable_reselect=0, sbic_no_dma=1,
sbic_parallel_operations=0), without any change in behaviour.
I guess I'm a victim of the remaining 1% of bugs in the Amiga sbic.c
driver after the last big change just before -1.1.
Note that there is another report (although not as a formal PR to us)
from neil@crash.drempel.org.uk (Neil Brewitt). He tried to use a
MUSTEK 6000 with an A3000. His scenario is a bit different: The machine
survives the auto-configure period, then any process trying to talk
to the Mustek hangs in "disk wait" (D).
>How-To-Repeat:
Connect HP Scanjet to built-in SCSI interface; reboot.
>Fix:
Fix: not known.
Workaround: switch scanner off before booting and don't use it.
