I am using an Intel Mac Mini with Leopard's latest updates and have Macports installed, up-to-date and working. However, I installed sane-backends, tesseract, twain-sane and xsane (though I intend to use the command-line) and can't get scanimage to work with my canoscan lide60. I'm told there are no sane devices found. I also have a linux box on which I can use sane with my canoscan lide60, although I get the same errors about no sane devices being found unless I run scanimage as root. I have tried on my mac running scanimage as both a normal user and root with no success. Is there an element missing from the macports system that I would need in order to do this successfully or have I missed a necessary port? Would the fact that the Macosx driver for this scanner is loaded be a help or a hindrance? I am blind and want to scan from the command-line and then use tesseract to convert the images; I haven't been satisfied with the alternatives I've found in Macosx itself. If anybody can help me with this issue it would be much-appreciated.
