>Do I need to download XSANE? FWIW: I do not think you will get it working from a live CD. First stop is to check the sane database http://www.sane-project.org/cgi-bin/driver.pl?manu=&model=&bus=scsi&v=&p= If your scanner is supported then you will need to install xsane from your distribution repo. Next step, Gimp needs a xsane-gimp plugin. Seems to be one for CentOS, bound to be one for Ubuntu. http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/8078537/com/xsane-gimp-0.991-5.el5.i386.rpm.html All being well, there is a menu entry in Gimp: 'File' -> 'Create' -> 'Xsane' which calls xsane for scanning and passes the result back to Gimp. -- rich (via gimpusers.com) _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
