[X-Apps] SCSI / Umax Scanner and OS X

[R.Welz]

I use VueScan with an Microtek E6 (SCSI). It seems that I have to reboot
everytime I decide to scan and have my scanner turned on later during work
session. Is this normal behavior?

I have an G4 with OS X.2.3. and an Adaptec SCSI Card (a cheap one).

Greetings,
Robert
