Trouble here in brew city... FC6 on a TP T30, fully patched and updated. HP ScanJet 6200C on a USB port that works fine with other devices (like a mouse and a camera.) The Linux compatibility list has this on the list. Scanner has been working fine with other systems for years. xsane 0.991 can't find the scanner. So I run sane-find-scanner both as me and as root, and it reports no results. Weird. I run lsusb and lo-and-behold... Bus 001 Device 011: ID..... Hewlett-Packard ScanJet 6200C Then I run xsane again and voila, there it is! Just posting this in case someone else is trying to do the same thing. "Don't know what I did, but it works now." I am happy, cuz it's a darn nifty scanner - big ol' flat bed. Whil Hentzen Milwaukee
Whil; Do you have to run lsusb every time you boot up to be able to scan? -P
