Interestingly enough, we just had a brief thread about wireless scanning on the forum. One of our members posted this: Try comparing /etc/sane.d/dll.conf and /etc/sane.d/net.conf in both distros and see if they differ. my installation I have to enable the "net" driver in sane.d and add my server hostname (or ip) to net.conf.
