"Kernel Configuration
To access your scanner, you will probably need the related kernel
drivers or additional support packages (libusb-0.1.10a). A SCSI scanner
will need SCSI drivers, a parallel port scanner needs parallel port
support (you should use enhanced EPP modes) and a USB scanner will need
the libusb package. Ensure you have got the necessary drivers properly
configured to access the devices. "
I'm especially interested in the SCSI and USB stuff. Any help would
be appreciated.
I use SANE and have a USB scanner. AFAICT, you don't need any special
kernel stuff to use it (that may be different for SCSI). The libusb
library is required and, in my case, also is libieee1284.
I have a USB scanner and just use libusb - I don't need libieee1284.
Maybe it's just needed for some specific scanners.
