hello sorry for the newbie question on an devel-list, but i did not find the help i need.
i try to get my epson perfection640u (usb) scanner running with sane and xsane. but xsane always says "no devices available". i know it should work, the scanner is supported. i found a mini howto in the faq (it's under www.arrakis.es), i followed the installation-steps, but without success. where can i find a installingguide or what do i have to do?? in the following some infos about my system. thanks a lot in advance jochen --------------------------------- jochen@linux:~ > xsane -v xsane-0.70 package xsane-0.70 SANE-1.0 compiled with GTK-1.2.8 with GIMP support, compiled with GIMP-1.2.0 XSane output formats: jpeg, png, pnm, ps, raw, tiff --------------------------------- jochen@linux:~ > scanimage --list-devices No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different, check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages). --------------------------------- linux:~ # cat /proc/bus/usb/devices T: Bus=01 Lev=00 Prnt=00 Port=00 Cnt=00 Dev#= 1 Spd=12 MxCh= 2 B: Alloc= 0/900 us ( 0%), #Int= 0, #Iso= 0 D: Ver= 1.00 Cls=09(hub ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs= 1 P: Vendor=0000 ProdID=0000 Rev= 0.00 S: Product=USB UHCI Root Hub S: SerialNumber=e000 C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=40 MxPwr= 0mA I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=09(hub ) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=hub E: Ad=81(I) Atr=03(Int.)
