It has for a long time irritated me that the command scanimage -L would find
two devices: my scanner and my Hauppauge TV-card. When I ran xsane I should
always select the scanner because it found both these devices.
Today I found the file /etc/sane.d/v4l.conf which contained:

/dev/bttv0
/dev/video0
/dev/video1
/dev/video2
/dev/video3
/dev/video4

After commenting out these statements xsane (and of cause scanimage) only fo=
und
the scanner and for that matter I consider my little problem solved. But wha=
t
is this c4l.conf godd for? Have I introduced other still unknown problems by
removing these statements?
