well, since my earlier email I built xsane from source (using pkgsrc), but this is after commenting out that line in scanimage.c. now xsane will launch but can find no devices. [/home/paul]# sane-find-scanner # Note that sane-find-scanner will find any scanner that is connected # to a SCSI bus and some scanners that are connected to the Universal # Serial Bus (USB) depending on your OS. It will even find scanners # that are not supported at all by SANE. It won't find a scanner that # is connected to a parallel or proprietary port. sane-find-scanner: found SCSI scanner " " at device /dev/ss0 [/home/paul]# dmesg | grep ss0 ss0 at scsibus0 target 2 lun 0: <UMAX, Astra 1200S, V2.7> SCSI2 6/scanner fixed this was a lot like the problem I was having a few weeks back before my scanner decided not to be visible. So it seems I need to resolve why the kernel sees the device by sane doesn't. Oliver gave me some pointers last time this came up: I'll let you know what I find. And if someone can advise on the vprintf thing, I'd like to hear about it.
