Hi,
the BTTV stuff is quite normal. You can remove the device v4l
in your sane.d/dll.conf file. After removing the entry you won'T
get the video devices. Thes devices can be used as SANE input
device...
The other problem is know but not yet solved - sorry...
The only solution is to buy a second parallel port adapter :-(
