It seems that libsane has been removed from /etc/udev/rules.d and everything is in /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/20thirdparty/19-libsane.fdi When I added a rule for the vendor with the id of the device to that file, I was then able to access it as a normal user. There were problems with using the device through xsane, but it could scan. I think this is because the device is not officially supported and I'm only piggybacking on another version. It worked after unplugging and plugging as well. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
