So it still doesn't find the scanner. What about the other things I told you? I mean loading the scanner module with options and looking at /proc/bus/devices? > Just tried scanimage -L.

I'm not a viceo expert but I'm pretty sure that you won't have success until sane-find-scanner lists your scanner. That's because if it's not found by sane-find-scanner it's usually not found by the kernel either and so xan't be used by the viceo backend. Bye, Henning
