Well, what does happen when you try to scan? Try scanimage >image.pnm. If that doesn't work, set the debug variable. Do the same for xsane. Do you use both xsane and scanimage as the same user? Otherwise there may be permission problems. I only one version of SANE installed? Otherwise xsane may use the other one. Bye, Henning
