Second update: I'm now running Knoppix LiveCD, and the scanner works just
fine with SANE - scanimage, XSane, and xscanimage (which is absent from my
main SANE installation) scan to the end without ever jamming. The scanner
makes some strange noises which it doesn't in Windows, but it *works*.
But since my main OS is FC5, and I (obviously) can't boot from Knoppix
everytime, I absolutely have to get SANE to work on Fedora.

Thanks in advance,

-Fibo

Third update: I uninstalled all packages whose name contained the string
"sane", downloaded the sources from ftp://ftp.sane-project.org/pub/sane/ for
both frontends and backends, compiled them, installed them, ran
xscanimage...

And my scanner still jams.

Any ideas?

Subject: [sane-devel] Live preview while scanning possible? (lide 60)
Message-ID: <[email protected]>

is possible to view the image creating while scanning on the lide 60  
driver?
I've used Vuescan and does it, it would be very useful for my needs.

Another question, if I do B&W scans on sane they don't have much  
depth instead on Vuescan they have much more greys, is this fixed in  
the last version of sane?

thanks
