See man sane-usb. sm3600 uses libusb, so the permissions of the usbfs must be set (/proc/bus/usb). The easiest way is to set option devmode=0666 in the usbfs entry in /etc/fstab. > scanimage -L flat out won't see the scanner and xsane dies just as it begins > to try to detect the scanner. If the frontends behave differently, that's usually a sign of multiple installations of SANE (or some trouble with dynamic loading). Bye, Henning
