I am running Ubunty Jaunty and my HP Scanjet 5300C works, albeit not
flawlessly as advertised by SANE.�� I bought it used because it was
advertised to operated fully with SANE and it did work OK at first but
somewhere in the upgrades (I believe from Feisty to Gutsy), it started
exhibiting all the behavior described in this thread.� The only way I
could get it working again was to force the downgrade of libsane to
version 1.0.18-3ubuntu1 and lock it so it would not be upgraded.� I still
have an occasional problem (it seems to be related to resolution choices)
but most of the time it works with XSane although the preview window
doesn't always load correctly.� Pretty frustrating for an older piece of
hardware that is supposedly fully supported by the SANE backend and
avision driver.

  Bug description:
  Plugging in a 5300C with USB results in this:

  [17179723.368000] usb 3-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd
  and address 3
  [17179733.548000] usb 3-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
  [17179733.552000] usb 3-2: can't set config #1, error -71

  And thats it. This should work with the avision driver and there is
  a (commented out as its not needed) line for it in
  /etc/sane.d/avision.conf

bin/driver.pl?manu=&model=5300c&bus=any&v=&p=

  This machine is an up to date edgy box with sane installed etc.
  Sane finds the webcam I have (when I plug it in) fine.
