Okay, I've checked the previous messages on the subject in the archives, still doesn't work. The handbook apparently has no info on setting up flat-bed scanners. There's nothing in the FAQ or other documents part of freebsd.org. I did read the xsane man page. I'm still stuck. Is there a tutorial of other doc available somewhere? My scanner - Umax 1220usb. My kernel does load uhci on boot up, usb does work, my usb mouse works. I installed xsane, backends and frontends. I edited umax1220u.conf like this: # Options for the umax1220u backend # Autodetect the UMAX Astra 1220U #usb 0x1606 0x0010 usb 0x03F0 0x0605 # The following line enables autodetection for the # Astra 2000U. However, this driver isn't entirely # compatible, so expect color problems :) #usb 0x1606 0x0030 # device list for non-linux-systems (enable if autodetect fails): #/dev/scanner /dev/uscanner0 The address I added was from a message I read in the archives, neither address will make the scanner work. When the machine boots it does find and recognize the scanner properly. If I just plug in the usb cable, it is recognized as expected. What to do now?
