here is what i am running... IBM laptop T22 with USB 1.1 -82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 USB -manufacturer: Intel Corp. -Driver usb-uhci -Device: N/A
Linux Redhat 8.0 here are some of the messages i get... sane-find-scanner -v gives the following... searching for USB scanners: checking /dev/usb/scanner... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usb/scanner0... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usb/scanner1... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usb/scanner2... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usb/scanner3... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usb/scanner4... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usb/scanner5... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usb/scanner5... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usb/scanner7... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usb/scanner8... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usb/scanner9... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usb/scanner10... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usb/scanner11... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usb/scanner12... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usb/scanner13... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usb/scanner14... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usb/scanner15... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usbscanner... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usbscanner0... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usbscanner1... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usbscanner2... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usbscanner3... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usbscanner4... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usbscanner5... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usbscanner6... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usbscanner7... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usbscanner8... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usbscanner9... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usbscanner10... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usbscanner11... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usbscanner12... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usbscanner13... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usbscanner14... failed to open (Invalid argument) checking /dev/usbscanner15... failed to open (Invalid argument) found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9, product=0x220d) at libusb:001:002 # A USB device was detected.
