I have resolved the problem of my advansys scsi card, not a linux
solution however ;-(
I put it in my wife's xp system box and after a lot of faffing around
getting the correct twain driver installed and finding some
installable Epson scanner software* I finally have a working
scanner.
Although the "Epson Scan! II32" application works the interface isn't as
good as The Gimp so will have to install that on her system too.
* for some reason the original CD has gone walkabouts and in any case
one of the other original CDs of Epson software says it cannot
install on windows NT!
