Thanks for the recipe :-) Now, I only need to translate it in a recipe with 20 000 steps -_- Indeed, the scanner is owned by a linux newbie. He has just installed Mandriva for the first time and he's asking for help on another mailing list... > But honestly, it might be easier to rebuild the entire sane-backends > package. BTW- sane 1.0.20 is more than 4 months old, what is your > distro waiting for? :) ^_^ Well, I'm surprised that sane 1.0.20 isn't available, even in the devel version of the distro.... Oh wait, I see that the last iteration of sane-bakends-1.0.19 contains a file "hp_rts88xx.conf". Since I have searched rts8891, I hadn't seen it the first time. I will go ask to packagers if it's the good one. Maybe they add new backends to sane 1.0.19. -- Christophe Gaubert
