I just checked the newbie and expert lists, and couldn't find anything that answered this question...
I just installed Mandrake 8.2, but kept my previous Mdk 8.1 /home partition. I used to have xsane working, and I ran scannerdrake and I can't seem to get the scanner working with msec on "Higher.
I haven't figured out as of yet what the problem is, but I was suspecting it's something that has to do with permissions because:
- regardless what msec is set to, if I run sane-find-scanner as root, my scanner is found at /dev/sg0
- if I set the security settings to "standard" everything works (i.e. xsane works too) It will also work if I set msec to "High"
- if I set it back to higher, although I can "find" the scanner with sane-find-scanner as root, I cannot open xsane (even as root) because "xsane: no devices available".
Where could I make the permissions change to enable the scanner for all users, but keep the system on msec "Higher"?
Thanks in advance!
