Although the usb > info says scanner right there. What do you mean by "has it doubts". Is it found by sane-find-scanner or is it not found? If it prints something like that: found USB scanner (vendor=0x055f, product=0x0219) at /dev/usb/scanner and the vendor- and product ids are correct than it's detected correctly. > > > > rmmod scanner > > modprobe scanner vendor=0x0001 producr=0x0002 > > This part went well, but it still can't find the device. That should be "product" not "producr" but I guess you found out. Please show us the output of cat /proc/bus/usb/devices if the scanner was not detected by sane-find-scanner. > [plustek] usbDev_open(/dev/usb/scanner0,) > [plustek] open failed: -1 Either /dev/usb/scanner0 doesn't exist or it doesn't represent your scanner. > It seems to me that this is an issue of not getting a device name > assigned or at least not publishing it. I guess your kernel scanner driver just has not detected the scanner. What is in syslog when you do the above mentioned rmmod/modprobe commands? Bye, Henning
