Have just installed Mandrake 9.1 but was disappointed to discover that
my HP Scanjet 2300c isn�t supported. Can anyone direct me to where a
driver for this scanner can be located and how to install it. I am
trying to make the transition from Windows to Linux.
Hey, scanner brother! I thought I was the only one to be so unfortunate.
See, the problem is this: HP is *usually* pretty good at releasing the
necessary info for the Sane people to write a driver, but in this case
it uses a weird chipset and there is currently no info or driver
available *anywhere*.
I've bitched several times on the HP support page, searched Googe/linux
til my *eyes bled*, it ain't gonna work.
Watch, now that I said that, Sane will announce a backend tomorrow...

How disappointing, this will make the task of weaning from Windows that
much harder.....
