Christopher, OK. Forgive me for a stupid question: bisect what? If it is the kernel that to blame, and if kervel versions are sequential, how come 3.2 0-52 works, 3.8.0-19 does not, then 3.8.0-29 works again, then 3.11.0-8 does not? What does Precise, Raring or Saucy has to do with kernel working or not? My understanding is that the various flavors (Precis, Saucy, Raring) have different features and packaging, supposedly better user experience, but they are built around some kernels, such as 3.2, 3.8 or 3.11. I would like to fully understand what I'm doing before starting.
Please, understand that I'm not trying to be difficult, but I'm confused about the fact that one kernel works, the next doesn't, the next works again, and so on. So should I simply bysect kernels in Xubuntu Precise and Raring? Raring already does not work, so why go to Saucy? Please, explain. Maybe I totally miss the point. I studied the "bysect" link you sent me and this is why I have these questions.

Scanner is not found - reported by Simple scan. I tried Ask Ubuntu, but got no answer. I have a parallel installation of 12.xx on the same computer, and scanner does work. So what is specific about 13.04? I have also an old FC-3 installation and the scanner works, using sane with xinetd. I notice that 13.04 does not use xinetd. So how is the scanner accessed? Whatever it is, it works on 12.xx and does not on 13.04.
