Hi all, I have a epson cx3200.
I am running debian testing and the scanner is recognized by root. for the benefit of other usb printer users here is what I did: The device files used by libusb are located in /proc/bus/usb/ (e.g. /proc/bus/usb/001/003). The exact file name can be found out by running sane-find-scanner which would print "libusb:001:003" in this case. While setting permissions with e.g. "chmod a +rw /proc/bus/usb/001/003" seems to work, this change is not permanent. The permissions will be reset when the scanner is replugged or Linux is rebooted. One solution to set permissions on-the-fly are the Linux hot-plug tools that should come with any current distribution. SANE itsself comes with a hotplug script and related documentation in the tools/hotplug/ directory. Please refer to the README in that directory for the details. I followed the above and viola I have a working scanner for regular users :) Aaron ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
