Hi! I'd like to know how to get my pp scanner to work. I know the appropriate backend (plustek_pp) and that I have to make sure parport is loaded. Just when I sue to root I can't run lsmod o.s. probably it's not in my path, but why? This is what I have added to modules.conf: alias char-major-40 pt_drv pre-install pt_drv modprobe -k parport options pt_drv lampoff=180 warmup=15 port=0x378 lOffonEnd=0 mov=0 slowIO=0 forceMode=0 This is the output of the kernel: Apr 20 14:10:40 localhost modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module char-major-81Apr 20 14:10:40 localhost last message repeated 3 times Apr 20 14:11:55 localhost kernel: ppdev: user-space parallel port driver[root@localhost etc]# Any ideas, anyone? Many thanks in advance, Florian
