This time it completed.
However that means I should have a GT-6800 backend, but if I uncomment epkowa in /usr/local/etc/sane.d/sane.dll, it isn't showing up in the xsane choice window yet, all I'm seeing is the plustek backend (its an epson 1250u). Is there something else I need to do? Running iscan from the cli gets me a "failed to send message to scanner" advisory window, but no more. Thanks for any other suggestions you can make Terry. -- Cheers, Gene AMD K6-III@500mhz 320M Athlon1600XP@1400mhz 512M 99.22% setiathome rank, not too shabby for a WV hillbilly Yahoo.com attornies please note, additions to this message by Gene Heskett are: Copyright 2003 by Maurice Eugene Heskett, all rights reserved.
