I've got similar problem, but on a different scanner. I've had my Epson Perfection 1270 USB scanner working since Breezy. Nor was Edgy any problem, but in Feisty it didn't work properly anymore. If I use xane through gimp I will be able to make a preview, but when I press the scan button I will hear the abnormal sound, I think Patrick is talking about, from the scanner and receive a dialog with the following message: "Failed to start scanner: Error during device I/O".
Using scanimage has the following problem: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ scanimage -L device `snapscan:libusb:002:006' is a EPSON EPSON Scanner flatbed scanner [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ scanimage -d snapscan:libusb:002:006 -x 50 -y 50 --format=tiff > test.tiff [snapscan] Scanner warming up - waiting 9 seconds. [snapscan] Scanner warming up - waiting 35 seconds. scanimage: sane_start: Error during device I/O However, scanimage does not make the scanner produce any abnormal noise. This problem may well be the bug in the kernel as melinux suggests, I think, but I'm not sure. I've also found some suggestions that unloading ppdev or ehci_hcd might be a work around, but that doesn't work around my problem. -- scanner doesn't work with ubuntu 7.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/94226 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
