I can print under Linux. The operating system is SuSE 6.3 with kernel 2.2.14. I could compile the sane 1.0.2 and the latest plutek-driver. But whenever I try to 'make load' I recieve the message 'device or resource busy'.

Hi Christian,
can you please enable the debug messages in the driver
module (simply open the Makefile and set the value DEBUG=n to
DEBUG=y, then make the module again, call make install then make load)
After trying to load, call dmesg and send me the output of that, so I
can have a closer look to what's happening...
Maybe it helps to set the parallel port to EPP mode (although this
should be done by the driver itself !)
Let's have a look at the debug output.
Bye
Gerhard
