This follows on from my libdll.a question some time ago. (Steve, that's the "some debugging output" conversation)
I did a fresh install of Debian 3.0 (Woody) (gcc2.95.4) I applied patches to kernel and to sane from http://viceo.orcon.net.nz/ as recommended, have been trying to run sane-find-scanner and scanimage-L. sane-find-scanner seems unable to find any usb scanner devices, while scanimage -L gets as far as [viceo] attach: opening usb /dev/usb/scanner0 [viceo] ----ScLoader---- and then gives the same message as sane-find-scanner, which is scanner.c: open_scanner(0): Unable to access minor data It looks as though sane can't connect to the scanner device. I don't think it's a faulty connection as it is a new machine and I have tried both usb ports, and there are lots of scanner devices under /dev/usb. I can't seem to capture any output to file at the moment, so debugging info is a bit thin on the ground, but I hope the above gives some insight into my problem! Any suggestions, anybody? Btw, the scanner is a Primax Colorado 19200 usb -- Alexis Registered Linux User 276336. The Penguin Rocks. I sometimes CQ #171406154
