Thanks again for your answers. Now I have my scanner working with the sane. I run xscanimage and everything works as expected. But I do not see any menu option in Gimp to make the scanning. I check that the xscanimage is in the Gimp plug-in directory, but it seems that the option was not added to the software. I installed Gimp before sane installation. Any idea? If you install the sane with RpmDrake, please do no read the readme file ;). Sane is automatically installed and the readme file instructions is to install sane with the commend ./configure.
