Scanner-geräte: Used to need to insmod scanner, but in FC3 this happens by itself. Used to need to edit modprobe.conf (in those days, modules.conf) to tell sane the scanner type and model. No longer. Used to have to edit the particular scanner file (mine uses the plustek.conf file), but no longer. It all happens by itself. Install Linux, and the scanner just works. In case you haven't bought one yet, I use a Canon USB scanner, now a couple of years old, the Canoscan N650U. If you buy a successor to this model, I'm sure you will do fine. It's slim, doesn't require a separate power source, and makes great scans. Check the sane site for loads of supported scanners.
