I did all this, and still got nowhere. In desperation, I configured and compiled the 2.4.18 kernel, which I have been putting off doing for quite some time. Now, I seem to have all the USB stuff working, and managed to do a scan.
My dmesg shows the following (sorry, this is a bit lengthy, though I've snipped parts out. I don't know if this will help you, but here goes: usb-ohci.c: USB OHCI at membase 0xcc81a000, IRQ 9 usb-ohci.c: usb-00:02.0, Acer Laboratories Inc.

Mine is plugged into port 1 (I assume). I have some modules that are not inserted, in anticipation of a new mouse (though with what the scanner cost, my wife would have a fit if i spent any more for a while). > xsane (which was working perfectly) will report that it can't find any > devices. > I haven't tried xsane yet, just sane (scanimage). > one of the reasons i came to debian was to get more control over my > software as illustrated above. not there yet. > Nor I. The kernel boots from the floppy, but lilo can't find /dev/hda1/boot. Time to try grub, I guess. Cheers -- and thanks for the input. Cam -- Cam Ellison Ph.D. R.Psych.
