I'm running Fedora Core 3.
I have an HP 5P scanner which /var/log/messages says:
Vendor: HP Model: C5110A Rev: 3701
Xsane returns an error "no devices found". I then typed the above
udevinfo command which returned the message:
"couldn't get the class device"
Apparently udev isn't initializing this scanner. I tried using MAKEDEV -
x sg without luck. Can I get some help? I really need to get this
scanner working.
Do you have the "sg" kernel module loaded?
# modprobe sg
I didn't check because it *was* loaded. I had a power outage and now it
was *not* there! I think Red Hat's new system of overwriting files sucks
big time.
Which file do you suspect has been overwritten?
How can I keep this module in /etc/modprobe.conf? Fix whatever
is not keeping it in?
Try adding "modprobe sg" to /etc/rc.d/rc.local
