Debian

# [ -d /usr/share/sane/gt68xx ] || mkdir /usr/share/sane/gt68xx
# cd /usr/share/sane/gt68xx
# wget http://www.meier-geinitz.de/sane/gt68xx-backend/firmware/PS2Dfw.usb
# wget http://www.meier-geinitz.de/sane/gt68xx-backend/firmware/PS2Dfw2.usb
# mv PS2Dfw.usb PS2Dfw1.usb
# ln -s PS2Dfw1.usb PS2Dfw.usb
$ xsane

If the scanner does not discover itself, or xsane scans only half of a page, try to turn the device off, then back on (by plugging off then on its USB cable).

It this does not help, try:

# cd /usr/share/sane/gt68xx
# rm PS2Dfw.usb
# ln -s PS2Dfw2.usb PS2Dfw.usb
$ xsane

If the scanner does not discover itself, or xsane scans only half of a page, try to turn the rusty piece of iron off, then back on once more.

    А зачем передергивать?

    Это проблемы драйвера?

      Это, по всей видимости, проблемы устройства или микрокода. По крайней мере, под всеми известными мне системами оно так себя ведет.
