When I am logged in as a normal (non-root) user xsane and xscanimage will crash (freeze) the system. I am unable to ctrl-alt-backspace, ctrl-alt-delete, ctrl-alt-f?, and do anything. I am unable to test whether the entire system is frozen or if it is just my console.
I am using the latest downloadable sane and xsane downloads (versions 1.0.9 and 0.90) on an HP PSC 2210. I downloaded the latest package from hpoj.sourceforge.net and have that installed. I am running kernel 2.4.20 I try and run xsane, and it will start up without a problem. However when I go to scan something it fails. A windows pops up saying there is an error during I/O, and everything then locks up. This doesn't happen when i am root, nor when I try and run strace to see what is going on. Any suggestions? Thanks, Scott
