Just when you thought it was safe.............. This thing has taken a strange twist. After a reboot, the Epson scanner no longer works. If I rerun the command:
sudo chown rich /dev/sg6 Things work again. What makes it even more weird is that /dev/sg6 ti the port for the Nikon scanner which does not have the problem. Running the chown command against /dev/sg5, which is where the problem scanner lives, does not fix the problem. It was by blind luck that I discovered this. Hopefully one of you guru types will understand what it all means. So, bottom line is that this is not a fix but possibly a workaround. Just run the chown command before using the scanner. Maybe there is a way to incorporate it into the object properties? -- permission problems for sane devices https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/121082 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
