Apologies for the mixup. I downloaded previous versions of sane first, and the plustek addon, and in the end I didn't notice that 1.0.10-pre3 had it already (I thought I added it there, as was necessary with the earlier v= ersion). Anyway - that's good news, thanks. The most annoying thing for end users is that the /dev devices don't exist (on a Mandrake 9.0), I had to mknod for /dev/pt_drv and /dev/usbscanner... But really: great job. I was not expecting the usb scanner to be supported = yet :) =2D --=20 David FAURE, [email protected], [email protected] Contributing to: http://www.konqueror.org/, http://www.koffice.org/ KOffice-1.2.1 is available - http://download.kde.org/stable/koffice-1.2.1/ =2D----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+OQlC72KcVAmwbhARAjteAKCilQtljslxSnQc46VStEHYhfE6HgCgoBqh ymYottVX1ftetUZzwEC2D3g=3D =3DuoaC =2D----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
