AUGH!!! I can't take it anymore! I just upgrade my system and I can't get my scanner working. I've exausted my knowledge of sane, so if anyone has any idea what I'm doing wrong _please_ say so, and if things look like they should be working... well that's a bigger problem isn't it. (oh it was working before the upgrade)
I installed sane-backends-1.0.6, sane-frontends-1.0.6 and xsane-0.80 on RH 7.2 here are some partial file dumps... This is from /var/logs/messages, when I try and use the scanner I get line after line of this. It is the _only_ error message I recieve regarding the scanner.
