Hi, Two things. First is to your problem. The file you are missing shows this on my system: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] / # equery belongs /etc/hotplug/usb/libsane.usermap > [ Searching for file(s) /etc/hotplug/usb/libsane.usermap in *... ] > media-gfx/sane-backends-1.0.18-r2 (/etc/hotplug/usb/libsane.usermap) > [EMAIL PROTECTED] / # You either need to make sure sane-backends is emerged or emerge it again to get that file. The last one should be in case it was accidentally deleted by the person in the chair. ;-) It happens we know. Second thing, always start a new message instead of replying to another one and changing the subject. Your email client may not be set up the way ours is but we track these emails by threads, may be better to understood as sorted by subject. The way you sent this email makes it show up as part of someone else's thread and if someone is not reading that thread that you replied to, you may not get the help you need. If you are new to mailing lists, bottom posts are highly preferred and send as text only, no html please. I had someone to tell me the same thing when I first came here. Hope that helps on both parts. Dale :-) :-) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
