Hello Martin
Excuse the delay in giving a return your message. I went to the place
that you indicated me and
I read the configurations for Umax and, finally, I understood what was
the scsi genric card. I thought that was a module to be carried by the
kernel, but, actually, it is the form like Sane works with the scsi
card of Umax. I followed the recommendations and, finally, my scanner
worked in Linux Mandrake. I only need, now, to find the best options of
configuration of the card. In fact, I take advantage of to ask somebody
that has the same scanner could send me the options used to configure
it, it would abbreviate the time I spend with the attempts.
I thank your help a lot, as the one of the other companions that
answered. Forced to all.
