That's right, the setting tells portage which of the drivers from sane-backends you want installed. The Brother drivers aren't in sane-backends. > I've seen on this list where some seem to have got Brother to work. > Maybe a search of past threads would shed some light.

Emerge takes note of settings there when it is about to build packages. If you install a package by hand, outside portage, it won't likely matter. I might add this for future reference. Before buying equipment, make sure it works with Linux, the distro you use for sure. Some brands work pretty easy but has some models that don't. HP for example generally works however, I've seen certain models that have something unique about them that causes them to not work at all or only certain limited functions. In my experience Lexmark is one that I have never got to work, any model. I avoid Lexmark like it's a disease. Scanners are in the same boat as printers, since some have both built in. I've seen on this list where some seem to have got Brother to work. Maybe a search of past threads would shed some light. They might have some tiny snippet that helps get you on the road to success.

I see. Should != will, and assume is the mother of all fuckups Well, I'm not here to fix every problem you encounter and judging by the sheer amount of posting you make and the level of content, I have to conclude that you are assuming we are. What steps have YOU taken to try figure this out and actually help yourself? Saying that you installed an rpm on a Gentoo machine and stuff don't work, what's wrong? is not the expected level of troubleshooting.

No, Brother only supply rpm or deb drivers. I was able to use "rpm" to install brother driver this way, so it should work with the scanner as well. -- Thelma

[gentoo-user] Network scanner
I've a Brother scanner ADS-2400N connected via network port. - I edit: /etc/sane.d/saned.conf (entered my network address: 10.0.0.1) - started: /etc/init.d/saned - installed brother printer drivers: rpm -ihv --nodeps brscan4-0.4.4-1.x86_64.rpm # brsaneconfig4 -q |grep 2400 65 "ADS-2400N" but when I run as user: "scanimage -L" device `epson2:libusb:002:003' is a Epson GT-9300 flatbed scanner only my epson scanner is showing up, NO Brother scanner is detected.

[gentoo-user] create network by hand with devices are not present
Setup: VBox vm running gentoo(amd64) guest on a win-10 (64bit) host Hardware: HP xw8600 - 2x Xeon CPU X5450 @ 3.00GHz - 32 GB ram Having a problem getting a network up... I know the rudimentaries of ifconfig and route enough to use them to create one. However the error I get with trying that seems to preclude that method. SIOCSIFADDR no such device enp0s3 error while getting interface flags: no such device Does it mean the tools for creating such a device are absent or what? I've hit this before a good while ago and don't remember any more how to get around it. The link in /etc/init.d/ like: `ln -sf net.lo net.enp0s3' is present
