Well, would have been a nice christmas present... BUT STILL:

mesh: target 6 aborted

which means that my UMAX Astra 1200S Scanner still does not work under
linuxppc...

Can you try increasing the udelay() calls in mesh_init() to see if it
helps ? There maybe something else going on, but it's worth trying.

Note that there can be other problems with the mesh as well: I remember I once
had some early 2.3.x kernels that could not init the mesh when cold-booted,
only when warm-booted. So I had to boot an older kernel first each time I had
powered down my box :-)
