I found a thread about Kooka being taken out of the distro. I've been using Kooka with my Epson PM-A850 all-in-one scanner-expensive-printer, but I have not been able to scan at 1200 dpi. Now I want to scan at 1200 dpi. I was able to take two scans, then it wedged. I hit the full scan button and nothing happens. Move reasolution back to 300 dpi and no problem. Back again to 1200 dpi and no scan. That was on F7. So, I decided to boot up my experimental install of F9, and I discover, no Kooka. Tried the scanner tool, but it complains that it can't find the sane library for my printer, or that there is some conflict. I really haven't been messing with loading lots of stuff, so I figure it's not likely to be a conflict, but I'll check later, if I can break out some time. Then I went hunting and found out that Kooka has been dropped. I also found Avasys. It's a blob. LGPL-compatible licensed. Gag. Anyone care to comment on Avasys's blobs? Or, preferably, point me to a properly open solution? I'll keep looking tomorrow, it doesn't look like I have time to do anything further today. But if anyone cares to give me a few clues before I go hunting tomorrow, I'd appreciate it. (Sempron 2600, Pasokon Koubou's private Librage brand with a K4 mobo, IIRC.)
