Ok I tried that. The device is /dev/sgd and I changed the permissions on it to
600, then 644. Could I be doing that wrong. What permissions does on set on a
device to share it?
In the mean time I'll be looking at sane dox to see if that could be a problem.
But I get a device not available from xscanimage on the command line.
Thanks again...
