OK after a quick check, this was discussed back in january 2003. The Linux SG3 interface does not work properly when a 32bit app is talking to a 64bit kernel. You can either: - try to do a 64bit build of sane-backends - try to use the old SG interface, if still exists/works Unfortunately, both options are unfit for Debian; 64bit binaries would require to rebuild all the dependency chain, and using the old SG interface won't last long :/ JB. -- Julien BLACHE - Debian & GNU/Linux Developer - <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Public key available on <http://www.jblache.org> - KeyID: F5D6 5169 GPG Fingerprint : 935A 79F1 C8B3 3521 FD62 7CC7 CD61 4FD7 F5D6 5169
