I downloaded 1.1.20 and did the following for Slackware 13 installation ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --libdir=/usr/lib/sane make sudo make uninstall sudo make install
And now ~ $ scanimage -L device `epson2:libusb:001:002' is a Epson generic flatbed scanner No more "no scanning device detected" answer, but xsane gives "no devices available" window. But, when I start xsane, the scanner does a "reposition" of the scanning element. I run scanimage >image.pnm and it scans. Any ideas as to why xsane is not finding the scanner now? A lock file left over from the previous install? tj
