use dmseg and check that the scanner was actually detected by the scsi driver. My scanner (hp sj3c) had to be turned on before the computer and completly warmed up before the kernel would detect it (meant turning on the scanner 3 minutes before booting linux!). Also make sure permissions for /dev/sg0 allow user or group access, or run find-scanner as root. ===== Amateur Radio, when all else fails! http://www.qsl.net/wa2mze Debian Gnu Linux, Live Free or ..... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
