I am having trouble getting my Canoscan N1220U scanner working with a stock RH 8.0 install.
Here's the installed versions (from rpms): xsane-0.84-8 sane-backends-1.0.8-5 sane-frontends-1.0.8-4 xsane-gimp-0.84-8 sane-backends-devel-1.0.8-5 Scanner is showing up when plugged in: Feb 5 02:43:30 linux-test /etc/hotplug/usb.agent: Setup scanner for USB product 4a9/2207/100 And, sane-find-scanner reports it: sane-find-scanner: found USB scanner (vendor = 0x04a9, product = 0x2207) at device /dev/usb/scanner0 I have modified my /etc/sane.d/dll.conf to only include the plustek reference. I have changed my /etc/sane.d/plustek.conf to include: [usb] 0x4a9 0x2207 device /dev/usb/scanner0 And I added the following to my /etc/modules.conf (saw this suggested in archives for similar problem for a different scanner): options scanner vendor=0x4a9 product=0x2207 However, xsane refuses to recognize the scanner with "no devices available" error dialog. As found in other trouble-shooting threads, I ran scanimage with debugging: -- [nmiller@linux-test nmiller]$ SANE_DEBUG_PLUSTEK=255 scanimage -L [sanei_debug] Setting debug level of plustek to 255.

[plustek] open failed: -1 [plustek] sane_get_devices (0xbfffde48, 0) No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different, check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages). [plustek] sane_exit -- Obviously, the most significant point there seems to be "[plustek] Device >0x04A9-0x2207<, is not supported!" I double-checked, and scanner.h in the local kernel source has this listed... Perms on the device are: crw------- 1 nmiller root 180, 48 Aug 30 16:31 /dev/usb/scanner0 No link for /dev/scanner. Thanks for any suggestions. I'm open to removing rpm's and compiling from source, but would appreciate comments on what's missing and how installing from scratch would fix it. Regards-- =Nadine=
