Hi, I just loaded the following:
[root@msp mark]# rpm -qa |grep "sane" sane-backends-1.0.5-1.1mdk xsane-0.79-1.1mdk libsane1-1.0.5-1.1mdk sane-1.0.5-1.1mdk Here are the installed modules: [root@msp mark]# lsmod Module Size Used by aic7xxx 107840 0 (autoclean) sg 28160 0 (autoclean) scsi_mod 90288 2 (autoclean) [aic7xxx sg] es1371 26272 0 gameport 1840 0 [es1371] ac97_codec 8624 0 [es1371] 3c59x 25824 1 (autoclean) An interesting thing is happening. When I start xsane, it says something like "xsane: no devices available." Just for grins I did a: [root@msp mark]# sane-find-scanner # Note that sane-find-scanner will find any scanner that is connected # to a SCSI bus. It will even find scanners that are not supported # at all by SANE. It won't find a scanner that is connected to a # parallel, USB or other non-SCSI port. sane-find-scanner: found processor "HP C7670A 3945" at device /dev/sg0 sane-find-scanner: found processor "HP C7670A 3945" at device /dev/sga It took almost a full minute to come back with the above 2 lines. I am also wondering why it is listed twice. Then I executed xsane again and it gave me the "xsane: no devices available" ONCE. The second time I executed xsane it started just fine. It is almost like I have to kick it to get it started. Can anyone tell me why? I am running LM8.0 (2.4.7 kernel) 1.4mhz Intell Pentium 4 with 512 mb ram. My scanner is a HP ScanJet 6300C. I love xsane. I just want it to come to life when I fire up the program. Thanks, Mark
