Well, come to think of that, the best way of testing (and eliminating) the 'It's a group or ownership issue' hypothesis is to see if it works as root, because then you're wielding root:root authority. However, FWIW, some ways of dealing with permission issues are covered at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sane#Permission_problem . 'epson2' is of course the optimal choice of SANE back-ends for your GT-7000S scanner, and there's definitely no need for a firmware blob for it. Have you tried commenting out back-ends other than the desired epson2 one in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf ? For testing purposes, I'd try commenting out all other lines. _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] http://lists.luv.asn.au/listinfo/luv-main
