The printer functions were working fine in fc5. sane-find-scanner worked, and then scanimage -L gave: device `epson:libusb:001:002' is a Epson CC-570L flatbed scanner OK so it did fid the scanner OK.... but running the GIMP and trying to "acquire -> Xsane:device...." did nothing - just gave no response at all, but running kooka (all under KDE) found the scanner just fine !!! I was then using kooka to do scans, but GIMP refused to co-operate. Subsequently out of desperation I deleted the existing .sane directory in the user area and tried again - it then worked just fine ! Mike
