it isn't USB: uk0 at scsibus0 target 2 lun 0: <UMAX, Astra 1200S, V2.7> SCSI2 6/scanner fixed
If I specify the device (/dev/scanner) I get this result. [...-backends/work/sane-backends-1.0.7/tools]# sane-find-scanner /dev/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/scanner sane-find-scanner: found USB scanner (UNKNOWN vendor and product) at device /dev/scanner # `UNKNOWN vendor and product' means that there seems to be a scanner # at this device file but the vendor and product ids couldn't be # identified. Currently identification only works with Linux versions # >= 2.4.8. this also happens when I use the verbose flag, whether or not I specify the device. if I do neither, I just get the unidentifiable scsi scanner message.
