Till, please see if you can fix this!!!! It doesn't only affect Gimp, I think it also affects OpenOffice.org (which indeed can scan via sane) and also makes setting saned up more difficult. Please set the device name in the backend configuration (I am assuming scannerdrake hasn't changed much since 9.0, don't have a scanner near my cooker box). Of course, firmware configuration (such as the Snapscan scanners) incuding prompting for driver CD, would be really cool ... > adding hp to dll.conf helped me out...
