I cannot get the whole thing to build, but the libraries do, and a make install after the make fails will install them, and they then do work with xsane/sane very nicely! >> read:Jan 5 14:37:24 coyote kernel: scanner.c: open_scanner(1): >> Unable to access minor data > >That one is ok, you can ignore it. > >> Jan 5 14:37:24 coyote kernel: Device not ready.

This doesn't look good. You don't have a link /dev/scanner >pointing to a SCSi drive? Anyway, the error looks suspicious. Not to my knowledge. The only link involving /dev/sda is a link from /dev/camera to /dev/sda1, made because my camera, an Olympus C-3020, is a vfat file system once the usb cable is plugged in and usbfilesystem is loaded. I finally built it into the kernel cause I kept forgetting to load it, with me beating my head trying to figure out why it doesn't work this time when it just did last week.
