I have been battling with trying to get my scanner to work after an f11 install - this is with a scanner that was working in f10 previously. I found a "fix" that may also work for others who find their scanner device is not found in GIMP->File->Create->XSane: Device dialog... During the updates after the install there was an update to sane-backends-1.0.20-4.fc11.i586 and this package deals with the dll.conf file in /etc/sane.d/ I noticed that there were two files: -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 916 2009-10-03 12:13 dll.conf -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 664 2009-06-23 09:04 dll.conf.rpmnew However the earlier dated dll.conf.rpmnew listed the driver that I needed and that was in the system, but the dll.conf file did not! So I made dll.conf.rpmnew into dll.conf and tried again - and it worked fine! Others having issues with their scanner may find that this workaround may help too - depending on the model of the scanner involved. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Possible-workaround-for-scanner-failing-to-work-in-f11-tp25742703p25742703.html Sent from the Fedora List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
