I'm currently at trying to make things work for ordinary users, sane-find-scanner works for normal users, but scanimage doesn't. Following the instruction I run as root: # sane-find-scanner -q found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x0121 [EPSON Scanner]) at libusb:/dev/usb0:/dev/ugen0 # scanimage -L device `snapscan:libusb:/dev/usb0:/dev/ugen0' is a EPSON EPSON Scanner flatbed scanner And I have even succesfully scanned the warranty in pnm. Then as ordinary user: $ sane-find-scanner -q found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x0121 [EPSON Scanner]) at libusb:/dev/usb0:/dev/ugen0 $ scanimage -L No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different, check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages). I have tried to indicate the device for scanimage but with no result: $ scanimage -d libusb:/dev/usb0:/dev/ugen0 scanimage: open of device libusb:/dev/usb0:/dev/ugen0 failed: Invalid argument Then I have tried to remove one of the devices and to change libusb with snapscan which is supposedly the backend driver. Any clues? Thanks, Erik GnuPG: http://www.locolomo.org/home/norgaard/norgaard.gpg.asc pub 1024D/11D11F9E 2003-08-15 Erik Norgaard Key fingerprint = C394 81C4 D137 EEE5 39BE 82D5 3E6B FB3E 11D1 1F9E
