hI THERE I have a canon cnoscan n1220u and it is being seen by scanimage -L and xsane is not saying no devices available...
I have the latst version of sane installed here is the debug from sane [courtz@localhost sane.d]$ SANE_DEBUG_PLUSTEK=128 xsane [sanei_debug] Setting debug level of plustek to 128.
