Have finally gotten sane-find-scanner working and scanimage -L working as root after over 3 days trying. Have to do PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin though. Tried the profiles.local, that did not work. Does anyone have any idea how to make the add to the path environment on a permanent basis?
When I execute xsane, I get Gtk-Warning **: Unable to locate loadable module in module-path: "libpixmap.so" even though file is located in /opt/gnome/lib/gtk/themes/engines, then it comes up, cannot find scanner. Added the path to the /etc/module.conf, still no work. Tried Gimp, it also cannot find scanner even though I done the ln -s /usr/local/bin/xsane ~/.gimp-1.2/plug-ins/ Per the Xsane website which also did not work, so I done ln -s /usr/local/bin/xsane /opt/gnome/lib/gimp/1.2/plug-ins/ which appeared to take but gimp still cannot find scanner. Can anyone tell me how to tie all of this together so it works? Have searched all of the associated websites and faqs, but none come up with these particular problems. System is Dell Inspiron 8100 w/ SuSE 7.3, 2.4.17 kernel, XFree86 4.2, Sane 1.07, Xsane 0.84. Art
