My HP5200C scanner used to work perfectly with the scanner.o kernel module. Now I upgraded to kernel 2.6.3 and have to use libusb. Everytime I try to scan with scanimage the output looks like the following:
P4 # SANE data follows 2550 3507 scanimage: sane_read: Error during device I/O On tty1 I get some of the following messages: cannot get config descriptor: Connection timed out And dmesg shows me some of these lines: usb 5-2: control timeout on ep0in usbfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed cmd usbmodules dev 2 rqt 128 rq 6 len 18 ret -110 The Scanner is detectet by "scanimage -L" as "device `hp:libusb:005:002' is a Hewlett-Packard ScanJet 5200C flatbed scanner". The Scanner makes some noise like it is being initialized but it's not scanning. I tried sane-backends 1.0.13 and the cvs snapshot from 2004-03-04 with the same results. I use libusb-0.1.8 and I have also tried 0.1.7. I don't know if this problem is related to sane or libusb. It would be nice if someone here could help me with this. Thanks Stefan
