Thanks for the tip and suggestion(s).. Here is what I see when I run 'same-find-scanner' as root: "found USB scanner (vendor=0x03f0, product=0x2005) at libusb:001:002 # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported by # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage." However, I don't get much when I run 'scanimage -L'. But I do have an indication that a scanner exists at - /proc/bus/usb/001/002" Don't know if any of this is good or bad news.. On Sat, 2004-05-29 at 18:08, Peter L.
