How is the > /dev/scanner device created? Any help would be appreciated. Is it really using /dev/scanner? I thought the FreeBSD port were using /dev/pt0 (the `processor target' device). Try symlinking this one to /dev/scanner, just in case. Needless to say, you need to have a kernel with a pt0 device. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
