No Linux.

The SCSI-2 connector is 25 pins.

For SCSI you will need a matching Interface card in your computer. Adaptec
makes many cards you can get for cheap on Ebay.

This is the cable I use on my SCSI-2 AcerScan 620ST scanner. It is a 6 foot,
25 pin Male to Male.
Pro Series IEEE 1284 Parallel Switchbox Cable - 1.8m
Part # F2A047b06

Just hope that SANE supports it!
