Comment 6 for bug 237426

This seems to be some issue with the avision backend. My Avision AV122 no longer works in Intrepid where it did used to work in Hardy. My HP multifunction works fine.

Interestingly I created a fresh Hardy install under VMWare to see if it worked there but alas that didn't work either. Below is the output from scanimage;
