The Lide 30 is supported by the plustek backend. > USB has been compiled into the kernel and when I do > sane-find-scanner, the scanner is found.

You can find out about which scanner is supported by which backend by using the scanner search engine: http://sane.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/cgi-bin/driver.pl The setup of the config file is explained in man sane-plustek. But ususally this should work without manual intervention. Also check that "plustek" is in dll.conf. Bye, Henning
