Ok, I tried running through my vmware setup to see if I could use my scanner; I canīt. I canīt even see my usb devices. This isnīt a problem for me since I can use a shared folder. However, I tried looking through the link I sent you and found that vmware looks for the scanner in /proc/bus/usb. I looked in that dir on my system and found nothing there; yet my scanner still works. My next thought was Ļok, where is it?Ļ I looked around and didnīt find anything that I thought would work. Thatīs really a moot point though, since in reading the vmware docs, they say that you can modify the path by going to īedit > virtual machine settings > USBī and changing the path in īPath to usbdevfsī field. That wasnīt available on my setup. I would suggest at this point that maybe you start bugging vmware people and asking where this setting is if it really exists and maybe someone else could enlighten us on where īPath to usbdevfsī exists on mdk? -- Michael Holt Snohomish, WA (o_ [EMAIL PROTECTED] (o_ (o_ //\ www.holt-tech.net (/)_ (/)_ V_/_ www.mandrake.com ============================================================<
