Hello all,

I am running FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE (updated today) and scanimage
(sane-backends) 1.0.18; backend version 1.0.18.  I am trying to connect an 
Epson Perfection
2480 Photo scanner via USB.

The kernel recognizes the scanner and assigns it to /dev/scanner0.
sane-find-scanner fails, and if I run it as root, hangs the system.
The system seems to regenerate /dev on startup; the link I created
to /dev/usbscanner is gone, as are the ownership changes I made to
/dev/scanner0.

Through all of this, sane-find-scanner has consistently failed (or
hung the system).

I'm stuck.  1) How do I fix this?  2) How, if FreeBSD is going to
regenerate /dev, do I keep it fixed?

Subject: [sane-devel] Wrong detection of Plustek parallel port scanner
Message-ID: <[email protected]>

Hi,

I've installed sane 1.0.18 on xubuntu 6.10. scanimage -L returns 

device `plustek_pp:parport0' is a Plustek 600P/6000P parallel port flatbed 
scanner

Unfortunately, my scanner is a Plustek 12000P. The scan result is just trash. I 
haven't found any possibility to make sane using the correct device. Does 
somebody know a solution?

Thanks and regards,
Frank
