Dear Olaf,

I followed your instructions and I have the scanner working now after  
some says of total despair! THANK YOU so much, you really made my day!  
I wish you all the best!


My regards from Portugal.

Hello!

I recently upgrade to Ubuntu 18.04 and my Brother DCP-150C scanner
isn't working. I have sane-utils installed and I did all the
procedures as stated here:
https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/15


I took a quick look at those instructions.  They include this

sudo ln -sf /usr/lib64/libbrscandec*.so* /usr/lib
sudo mkdir -p /usr/lib/sane
sudo ln -sf /usr/lib64/sane/libsane-brother*.so* /usr/lib/sane

but it looks like Ubuntu has dropped /usr/lib/ and nowadays only looks
for libraries in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/.  See

https://alioth-lists.debian.net/pipermail/sane-devel/2018-July/036265.html

You can clean up the result of the instructions above with

sudo rm /usr/lib/sane/libsane-brother*.so*
sudo rmdir /usr/lib/sane
sudo rm /usr/lib/libbrscandec*.so*

and instead use

sudo ln -sf /usr/lib64/libbrscandec*.so* /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
sudo mkdir -p /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sane
sudo ln -sf /usr/lib64/sane/libsane-brother*.so*  
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sane


This is all untested but I think this will fix things for you.

Hope this helps,

[sane-devel] can't make my scanner work

2018-08-11 Thread João Teodósio 

Hello!

I recently upgrade to Ubuntu 18.04 and my Brother DCP-150C scanner  
isn't working. I have sane-utils installed and I did all the  
procedures as stated here:  
https://sites.google.com/site/easylinuxtipsproject/15
The printer is working fine, but not the scanner, inspite of all the  
procedures. I found your e-mail adress in the file  
"60-libsane1.rules", where, as asked, I added the text:

# Brother scanners
ATTRS{idVendor}=="04f9", ENV{libsane_matched}="yes"

Even though the scannes doesn't work.

Could you, please, help me?
Joao Teodosio.
