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
